        What if the gnat also has an atom bomb, used nerve agent on foreign soil, has kidnapping as a foreign policy, & is batshit crazy?

        That those "oblivious" to suffering are just mostly "unaware" is typical naivety from Chomsky. Theyre aware of climate change they dont care

        Seeing it on the news is different than experiencing it in person. Out of sight, out of mind. Climate change is different. It affects all.

        Right. And aging baby boomers know this. They just don't give a damn. Beneath the dissembling is cognizant, unsympathetic realization.

        They're off this coil in 2ish decades or so they literally do not give a damn what happens after.

        The Milleniells will save our environment in the 2018 midterms. They don't say much but they do follow news on Democracy Now, etc.

        They will not. They're also ten years late. Wishful thinking is a sorry thing to place hopes of climate action on.

        His theory of LAD is rather convincing when it comes the perplexing issue of language acquisition.

        It is said that Chomsky is the only living person out ten intellectuals who are the most quoted in our time.
