Any social system is based on a background constitutional form or, if you prefer, the indiscutable rules of the "unic party". In our western democracies it is the "ping-pong table" where players alternate game after game. The soviet system in its purest form is a bottom-up hierarchy of councils (soviets): The people are the main responsible party electing their programs. Stalin turned it all upside down so that he made himself responsible of everything...

Amen. Democracy is 2 wolves + 1 sheep deciding on what to eat for dinner (or something to that effect). Give me a Constitutional Republic any day!

Democracy? Don't u C it's only a bipolaristic power alternating every few years, maybe so to never find actual responsible ppl, & the background of it being depicted of unremovable shadowy dictorial principles, & @ its backstage the slick as lard capitalistic oligarchies. So tricky & manipulative is this system that makes u harmless & remissive! So u live foolishly like N happy goat in the illusion that your shepheard feeds u 4 mercy & care. But u're his slave, & he can do what he wants from u!

The first thing I would like my self-proclaimed "representatives" to do is to stop claiming to represent me. I want no part in their democracy or there government.

elite central bankers also luv communism as the rothschild trillionaires invented it and had their relatives the rockefellers hire marx to write that book about it. another fake revolution lol. then some 200 families came in russia and own that country to this day. communism is the ultimate class society and it was never a poor man's idea. nowadays the big hit is the 2rd way of combining the best of both worlds, mixed economies with fascism and communism.

What agenda could he be pushing? He is speaking AGAINST power and privilege. Your skepticism is certainly healthy but you should try to look at it objectively. Chomsky has nothing to gain by openly attacking the most powerful people in the world, and a lot to suffer from it. Just one glance at the literal mountains of lies and slanders spread about him constantly should show that.

I understand and agree with his views...they are not new to me, as these views have appealed to me for quite some time now. However I am somewhat skeptical of him on his authenticity. More so because I am just beginning to research him. Does any of you know any types of agendas he may be trying to push other than appearing to speak with true logic and humanity?
