If you said who's Noam Chomsky then the American propaganda machine is working as intended... marginalization of the population. And don't forget the dumbing-down of citizens with a government run education system that is a joke. And of course, we can't forget the corporate controlled mass media which tells us absolutely nothing of importance... very few know that the opposite of what the media says is news in many cases.
Noam Chomsky is a linguistics professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and has been for 50 years. He has been recognized as the most cited author alive and number eight on the list of the top ten most cited authors of all time... A list which includes Plato, Freud, and the Bible. He has been active for over a half century in standing up against power and aggression and its affects on the world around us. He is also my hero... and inspiration. How is it that every intellectual or activist I meet has no idea who this man is? If they do it is vaguely... He has been silenced. We are not supposed to!
At this critical time in American history, I am proud of the stand people like Noam Chomsky have made and I am hopeful that soon Americans will wake up from the government induced slumber we've so comfortably enjoyed for years. If you do not see that we are on the brink of disaster along the lines of the fall of the Roman Empire, then you may want to begin to open your eyes and investigate the world around you.
