Noam Chomsky: Going Beyond “Polite Discourse”

knowbuddhau: Noam Chomsky, way back in 1959, busted B. F. Skinner’s myth of radical behaviorism as the one true path to predicting and controlling human behavior. In an interview published today by Guernica, Chomsky makes reference to that achievement, and again busts a myth at the heart of what ails us today: that of the sacrosanct use of violence by the US to shape the world according to our self-worshiping will.
