"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken

More lame b.s. from America's so-called "best known anarchist".
@Ken Out of curiosity, do you read the Chomsky articles? If so, do you have specific disagreements?
Yep. Many of them. Chomsky is statist hack IMHO. Have you read up on him? I'm not trying to start a flamewar but it sure doesn't seem like it to me. Just sayin'...
This link will send you to a far better and more articulate critique of Chomsky than I could write and while I don't stand by the author's (John Zerzan) politics I think his take down of Chomsky is both accurate and fair.
@Ken I am familiar with both Chomsky and Zerzan. I was just wondering if you had read the articles or not. Many people attempt to tear Chomsky apart without actually reading or understanding his work.
