    20:45 to 22:36 says it all. This is the solution. Chomsky often gets criticized for not giving enough solutions, but this really isn't fair. Bottom line: organize. We have to stop isolating ourselves, fearing others, being shy, and thinking we're alone. There are tons of people out there.
    We have to come together. Form or join a group and expand it; be welcoming and inclusive. Focus on common interests and goals. Start with friends and family. Join organizations, form a union.
    Online is fine but the real world is better. Let go of political "hobbyism," and make it a real part of your real life.
    Start at the local level. Learn to communicate, especially with those who don't immediately share your views; regulate your emotions, practice patience and empathy.
    We 80%, we working and middle class, have the numbers- and despite the propaganda we can read the writing on the wall. But That's not enough without real-world action and organization. Yes, we're all busy with legitimate things like jobs and families, but if we decide to prioritize these "political" things in our life, we can find the time. Hell, if we can spend time watching TV, drinking, watching sports, and playing video games, we can do this too- we can be good citizens. It's fun, it's empowering, exciting, and if we succeed it will benefit both ourselves and the world. There is really no alternative.
    You have to be in it to win it. Yes, there's a risk you fail, there's a risk of discomfort and it can be scary even, but Americans aren't cowards, we like a challenge. But more importantly, doing nothing is the greater risk, because it's a GUARANTEE that nothing changes.
    Solidarity!

      I like his views. He is also very articulate. But some of his ideas just won't work as people can be so foul, so self centred, so frightened that they don't think straight and become greedy, violent, evil.
      Of course the very same people can be wonderful, kind, considerate ..... but the good and the bad always come together.

      keep watching interviews of his and you’ll come across it. he addresses this question in one of his books, understanding power. his answer is basically a reasonable one, saying you have to look at each individual case and interrogate it. i would recommend reading about anarchy as a political philosophy. the basis of it is to question power and how it’s being exercised all the time, an admittedly messy (but necessary) process. start with what you’re passionate about and that’s where we can all make the most change

      Moreover, all his criticisms of others have the great luxury of exploiting Hindsight-Hindsight which those whom Chomsky criticizes did not have at the time!

No shared sacrifice. Reagan put an optimistic face on horrific policies. He did not openly ask for sacrifice. As long as others shed blood it was fine. Anti vaxxers are the result today.

      I'm just going to leave it at that. I find engaging with people whose best way of communicating their thoughts and feelings is by name calling to be a complete waste of time and leads to no meaningful exchange. I know I'm a caring person and my life speaks for itself, whether you agree with that statement or not makes no difference to me.

    Noam Chomsky is probably my favorite socialist thinker. He recognizes that, like all forms of government, socialism has the potential to fall to authoritarianism, but instead of throwing up his hands and giving up, explains how socialism has, and could again, be implemented to create a truly egalitarian society.

      Anyone who claims that an alternate Governing System could actually work in our society, whether Socialism, or something else, and wants to be taken seriously, has a responsilibility to actually implement the Alternate Sytem, and demonstrate that Alternate System can really work in real world conditions, themselves!
