TL;DR stop getting your talking points from the feds and read theory

    I mean, at least Orwell fought in the Spanish civil war a Chomsky wrote manufacturing consent. That’s better than day drinking and releasing a video twice a year.

        might be a coincidence, but Parenti wrote “Inventing Reality” two years earlier, and it contained a lot of the same salient points as Manufacturing Consent. Some have suggested that Chomsky plagiarized Manufacturing Consent

        So this is actually provably false. Manufacturing Consent began as a series of articles that were written before Inventing Reality. Parenti actually quotes a few of them in Inventing Reality.

      Someone should ask Chomsky on how Biden is tackling climate change. And how AES states aren't real socialists and how the fall of USSR is good for socialism. Old man is a privileged white dude who has never had to suffer like my people did.
