Response: Chomsky on Lenin

Subject: responding to Chomsky's perception of Lenin and Leninism

Credits:

The video in question is from the United Leninist Front (ULF), a Marxist-Leninist(-Maoist) group that I have affiliations with (as I highlighted in my Half-Hour series). The speaker in the video is "Armin" - one of the founding members of the ULF. Origination of topic dates back to May, this was concerning me ("Felix") and "Armin" on which video to respond to that Chomsky has done in the past. The majority of the script/notes utilized in the video was crafted by me, but revised somewhat, for convenience, by "Armin" himself. The audio was recorded by "Armin" - but I was the editor and uploader of this video on both the ULF YouTube channel and here. The video was finally done on the 20th of July after "Armin" came back from his hiatus.

There are two things that are actually useful that come from Chomsky.

  1. His analysis of the american propaganda system

  2. His theories in linguistics

The way I see him, especially recently, is that he's a liberal masquerading around as some sort of radical. If you watch his latest documentary, it's full of liberal talking points. He has an entire bit about the,"Middle class".

Although, I would recommend to every left wing person to read,"Manufacturing of consent", especially if you live in the united states.

In my view, Chomsky is a victim of the propaganda system that he himself has worked long and hard to expose. He likes to talk about socialism, but any real world socialism he seems to reject outright by not being pure enough or something.

Idk, I have a lot of mixed feelings about the guy.
