today is the 19th anniversary of 9/11, and so also of the entire professional media class losing their minds over chomsky telling some plain truths about it
more of chomsky exposing the grotesque hypocrisies and warmongering derangement of the professional media and intellectual class in the wake of 9/11: "everyone's worried about stopping terrorism, well there's a really easy way: stop participating in it"
remember the atmosphere at the time: any deviance from the "war on terror" hysteria was perceived as "siding with the terrorists" by the professional media class. it was total uniformity of thought. so watching chomsky do this was a rare moment of sanity:
this sums up the professional media and intellectual class perfectly, and explains why you're seeing the same hacks, liberal and conservative, who fanatically cheered on the "war on terror" hysteria, now desperately trying to re-write that history to absolve themselves from blame
one of these grotesque depraved ghouls, who has now rebranded himself as a brave free speech warrior, is andrew sullivan. see this thread for the kind of sicko shit he was doing back in the heyday of the "war on terror" hysteria
for the first 9/11 that no one in the professional media and intellectual class talks about see this thread
