Noam Chomsky: 'Ronald Reagan was an extreme racist - though he denied it'

Noam Chomsky, author and political theorist, called the United States a “very racist society” and then slammed one of its most beloved presidents, Ronald Reagan, as a prime example of a very racist man during an interview on GRITtv about Ferguson-related issues and race relations.

“This is a very racist society,” he said, Raw Story reported. “It’s pretty shocking. What’s happened to African-Americans in the last 30 years is similar to … happen[ed] in the late 19th century,” as described by Douglas Blackmon in “Slavery by Another Name: The Re-Enslavement of Black Americans from the Civil War to World War II.”

I well remember Chomsky’s ideas on transformational grammar from my college and grad school years. His work in this realm was both thought provoking and helpful. Then he ventured away from linguistics and, as a result, his work has become only provoking and unhelpful.

Noam still denies his own hatred of blacks? Does anyone still believe him?

I heard Noam Chomsky is a pedophile. Can’t verify it and don’t know if it’s true.

Noam Chomsky...resident of Lexington,Massachusetts,one of the wealthiest,and whitest,suburbs in the nation.A check of the town’s website indicates that his home there is assessed by the town at $750K...which means that,given state laws regarding property assessments,it has a market value around a million dollars.

Noam Chomsky is an extreme racist, though he denies it.

ALL liberals are racist to the core.

Noam Chomsky has been elevated as some hipster type of liberal genius.
In reality he is is just a misguided, narrow minded liberal.

Noam Chomsky is a perfect example of a compartmentalizer.He may know a lot about linguistics, but he has a disintegrated mentality and is irrational about everything else.

Noam Chomsky has a penchant for under age boys...

Pretty sure that trumps being a racist...

Why would a man who was a genius in one subject (linguistics) spend his life being an idiot on many other subjects?

He’s not the only one with that affliction. Bertrand Russell was a mathematical genius; Paul Ehrlich was a great entomologist; Paul Krugman’s work on the economics of trade deserved a Nobel Prize. But outside of their narrow fields, they all come off as idiots.
