More Sunday morning wisdom from Noam Chomsky:

[marmar]

"There is no reason to accept the doctrines crafted to sustain power and privilege, or to believe that we are constrained by mysterious and unknown social laws. These are simply decisions made within institutions that are subject to human will and that must face the test of legitimacy. And if they do not meet the test, they can be replaced by other institutions that are more free and more just, as has happened often in the past."

*****

"The 'corporatization of America' during the past century (has been) an attack on democracy."

*****

"The most effective way to restrict democracy is to transfer decision-making from the public arena to unaccountable institutions: kings and princes, priestly castes, military juntas, party dictatorships, or modern corporations."

*****

"Any dictator would admire the uniformity and obedience of the (U.S.) media."

*****

"The U.S. will not permit constructive programs in its own domains, so it must ensure that they are destroyed elsewhere to terminate 'the threat of a good example'".

1. Noam chomsky is definitely good. Bob Black is also another anarchist genious I admire n/t

[housewolf]

2. Reading these quotes from Chomsky give me hope for the future

Hope that soon "the times" will catch up to the man so that his can be heard, understood and heeded by a much larger audience.


Excellent post for a Sunday morning. Thank you!
