Noam Chomsky on The Collapse of American Empire with Matt Kennard

[@normanvanrooy3113]

This was a great interview and Chomsky was right on target. Clear and lucid. I’ll mourn his passing when he dies. He’s an American treasure.

All such interviews as this of Professor Chomsky are historical records. He has been a juggernaut of intellect for most Americans' entire lives.

Chomsky has no conscience. Psychiatric studies clearly show people on his side of the political spectrum rank low in conscientiousness. Have misplaced false empathy. Are more likely to have dark triad traits and mental instability. Clearly evident in here.

[@practicaliching2311]

The most often repeated finding in psychology is that a left leaning bias is a symptom of mental instability. Repeated across decades and in studies all around the world.

[@practicaliching2311]

"Undoubtedly the two most consistently found relationships are the positive effect of conscientiousness on right-wing voting and the positive effect of openness to experience on left-wing voting. Conscientious individuals are theorised to be more conservative because they take greater heed of social norms, valuing order and accomplishments that are socially proscribed. Open-minded individuals are more accepting of unconventional social behavior and unorthodox economic policies that are generally associated with the left.

I love Noam Chomsky he really helped me further crystallise my interpretation of economics, society, foreign policy, politics & media , God bless you Noam Chomsky Love to you all always God bless you all always Jah Jah Jah power

[@fliplin101]

Seconded......

[@jasonkinzie8835]

A great individual! This guy seems like he knows what's going on pretty much everywhere and at 96 years of age he still has the ability to talk intelligently for 53 minutes. And he had another talk after this one! Just a really impressive intellect and a very moral person.

[@GrandmaCathy]

Can you even imagine remembering the 1930’s? And still being so determined to witness the world and connect the dots?

[@TheRealSnakePlisken]

Replicants are now just in abject service to wealth and corporate power. No truer words ever spoken. We need Noam for another 100 years. Always a pleasure to hear his wisdom. Thank you for raising his voice.

[@mrmojoman]

Fantastic interview! The older I get the more I realize that every empire is built around oppression and manufactured consent ((a term I heard “somewhere”)) of the people they oppress. I never knew all that Haiti went through… my brother was in Haiti in the late 90’s in the army. We never thought allot about the politics involved…

[@JazmineHidalgo]

I honestly think this knowledge should be accessible to everyone by translating it to every single language! As a Chilean also a country victim of the USA imperialism under Nixon government and the cia that orchestrated a coup against Salvador Allende in 1973 after his government started nationalising our natural resources and building a bridge with our indigenous communities followed by 20 years of military dictatorship. I can only understand this interview because I have lived in an English speaking country that’s why I think this should be translated so EVERYONE can listen to this man!

[@martin4349]

@JazmineHidalgo, I understand your interest, your will, your desire that the teacher's words reach, if it were possible, all people. Too bad it's impractical, but what we have to do is our part. Since it is impossible to save the world, or our country, or our state, let's do what we can for our neighborhood, for our street. That is our mission.

[@davidlohan1212]

I'm glad you changed the title to the video. I had googled to see if he had died. I am happy he is still with us.

[@Contessa6363]

He meant the last interview before he got sick!

[@jacobsrich2010]

​@@Contessa6363 Exactly and more specifically before he lost his ability to speak due to suffering a stroke.

I came across Noam Chomsky 10 years ago, and have enjoyed every moment of listening to his knowledge, humility, integrity, and education since then. Thank you Noam for enlightening so many, including myself.

[@KevinFrank-p8f]

Absolutely chilling to watch this after the US election

[@khaledabunahel3368]

Noam Chomsky is the most renowned intellectual and visionary person, his rich knowledge, teaching, interviews, books … are wealth of knowledge that can pass across borders and generations. Indeed he is a man of integrity, humane conscience and courage to say the truth that he believes in even if it does not suit those in political or economic power.

Like everything else, all things come to and end in one way or another. This man paid his dues beyond measure. Learn from him. Close ranks, and march. Thats how you honour this great man.

[@CurlewCurlew1]

I'm not sure marching is what Chomsky is suggesting. I would rather get on with co-creating the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.

[@foipa1]

Please make this book available as an audiobook, some of us really rely on that format! Thank you

[@mrjbug98]

I have always had the greatest respect for one of the most respected linguistics & scholars of our time... Noam Chomsky intellectual capacity to diagnose societal ills through language is nothing short of remarkable... brutally honest in his summation leaves whoever seriously opens their minds to this intellectual feast... can not reduce this skill set by claiming through their whims & passions that he (Chomsky) is misinformed...no matter what side of the issues you fall on... Noam Chomsky intellect draws you deeper into the analysis to find greater strength & meaning to these societal ills that plagues generations of brain washing... 🧠 MAY ALMIGHTY GOD continues to illuminate this Scholars path

[@VintageBarman504]

A great interview that teaches so much about global politics. Mr. Chomsky is a national treasure.

[@fabiengerard8142]

a GLOBAL treasure!

[@Tristan_again]

I've been reading Chomsky since the early 1990s. He really opened my eyes to a credible alternative analysis of media and politics. Legend.

[@bakedbean37]

"alternative analysis" Do you agree with him that the ONLY reason Finland joined NATO, regardless of it's neighbour's ongoing invasion of another neighbour, was for the "Finnish Industrial Military Complex" to make more money? Is that credible?

[@fabiengerard8142]

I too happened to read 'Manufacturing Consent' in the early 1990s, being already an avid reader of Pasolini's 1975 'Scritti corsari' (Pirate Writings) at the time. Thanks to the Internet, I've never ceased to follow him on a kind of daily basis for the last 25 years. Most lucid mind of our times, such a wonderful human being, and definitely an irreplaceable master in all regards. Absolute respect. 🙏🏻♥️🙏🏽♥️🙏

[@helenheenan3447]

Learning from the amazing Noam Chomsky since the 1960s. He never gives up, and gets right to the core of the truth.

'Norm' is for Finkelstein... 'Noam' is for Chomsky. 🤫

[@HoboSimian]

The amazing thing to me is that this man can hold this depth of disturbing and soul crushing knowledge and still keep plodding on and trying to educate. That is one hell of a triumph of spirit. I can barely go on with the limited tidbits I've learned. It all seems impossible to improve.

[@Oyeretterminer]

I'd just like to say that you are all heroes at Novara. Keep up the work. I wish others were as brave as you are.

[@JohnGeary-e9e]

Thanks Matt K respect to you and thanks for your excellent guest Mr Chomsky

[@staninjapan07]

Thank you both. No matter how many videos featuring Prof. Chomsky I see, I always learn something new and hear a side of a story I had not heard before. This generates more questions than it answers, as always. I will check out your book, as long as I do not have to visit Amazon to do so, speaking of oppressive regimes.

[@Emy53]

Oh my, I have listened to this amazing man for a few decades. I have much respect and admiration for his teachings, and I trust his opinions. He's aged so much, and I wish him many blessings.

As a Anglo-Saxon / Hispanic American Woman I always knew that we had other countries around us but I did not know the extremes thank you for this education being educated I was saddened as well. To find out that the country I used to be so proud of is all an illusion
