Chomsky: Most dangerous organization on Earth

[Valjean]

Mainstream media usually ignore Chomsky, but with an extraordinary claim like this, I expect someone will pick up on it.

Outlandish? Well, no. "The party is dedicated to racing as rapidly as possible to destruction of organized human life. There is no historical precedent for such a stand."

Given the importance of Climate Change I agree with Chomsky. I'm pretty sure Trump would take it as a compliment and a badge of honour though.

ROFLMAO!! What a crackpot!

Eh, not really.

Hey, he's old.
I've seen others lose their marbles with age, eg, Ralph Nader.
News media ought to cut people slack when their decline
makes them look bonkers.

Donald Trump is another who has lost his marbles as he got old; actually, not sure he ever had any marbles.

I'll take that as a guffaw.

Donald's problem's don't appear to be age related though.

Good grief, Charlie Brown. An evidently forgotten Nazi Party comes to mind when we speak of wholesale human destruction. (There's curmudgeonship for ya, @Revoltingest.)

And regarding mass murder, even ole Adolf stands in the shadows of Marx & Mao.

I respect Chomsky's viewpoint, although I consider both the Democratic and Republican parties to be part of the same organization, which I agree is dangerous. Whether it's the "most dangerous organization in world history," that may be debatable.

Kudos.

I wish that India had such people who could speak against so called leaders who have actually been hoisted up by plundering lobbies.

The "most dangerous country in world history" would be an easier argument to make.
Some merit there, but even that I don't buy.

Stalin??

Unless Uncle Karl had a very successful 2nd career as an assassin...

I considered naming Stalin (the usual perp), but I chose
Marx because he originated that strain of carnage.

Well, it is coming from the Chompmeister himself, so, yes, Trump would likely see it as a sign that he is doing something right.

You do have to keep in mind that Chomsky is a first rank linguist and so he knows how to play an audience for the maximum effect as he realizes they won't drill down too deeply to think about the absurdity of what he is saying. He knew the headlines would play well reassuring many that their hero believes precisely what they have long suspected. Easy as pie, really.

I guess if we ignore every single Nazi, Stalinist, fascist, and terrorist organization in history, he might be right.

This kind of irresponsibly blind, deeply prejudiced statement is what happens when bipartisan politics is allowed to override reason and facts. Chomsky's statement doesn't sound less absurd than some Trumpisms, which is quite a feat.

Chomsky is referring to something not related to Nazi's, etc.

Noam Chomsky has argued the Republican Party is the most “dangerous organisation in human history” and the world has never seen an organisation more profoundly committed to destroying planet earth.

Has nothing to do with what you mentioned.

It's not like the mega-mass-murder and wars carried out by, say, Stalinists and Nazis were eco-friendly. Also, it seems to me that the environmentally destructive policies of the GOP are a byproduct of primary motives such as corporate greed, not something they're actively pursuing just for the sake of destroying the planet.

Chomsky is just engaging in histrionics... and not for the first time.

He's specifically referring to climate change. The party that denies it's happening because they're lobbied by big oil. There's has never been such a threat in the past to human survival on this planet.
And it's all for greed
