This is in my opinion one of the most important and relevant to current events Chomsky excerpts that I've ever seen:

Noam Chomsky - Neoliberalism Is Destroying Our Democracy

https://youtu.be/uh8PpYRD5to?t=152

(Starts at 2:35, "and then a third thing happened..."; personally, I would suggest ignoring the various TV clips spliced in as that to me seems like the projections of the politics of the editor of the video and not necessarily the specific idea Chomsky himself intends to convey.)

To me this illustrates how those who actually "control" things in the US and the world have split those who should be allies into two camps. The perfect weapon in this strategy is the "proper" and well-intended anti-racist propaganda Westerners have been subject to for decades - combined with the dulling of the average Western mind to the point many are near incapable of critical thinking, the result is that perfectly common sense public discussions on incredibly important matters such as international trade and immigration can largely be stopped in their tracks by cries of "racism!"...and even better, the ones who are being most harmed, the younger generations of the (former) middle class, are the very ones who are stopping the dialogue that affects their future!

Human nature is really amazing if you step back and observe it critically.

It's a perfect example of the modern far-left and far-right convergence. Both have anti-globalist agenda, contempt for human rights and only slight disagreement over who exactly has to be eliminated for peoples' better life. Only now they were able to peacefully face off over the Internet and like each other's tweets.

The far left has an anti-globalist agenda?

What do you mean by "contempt for human rights" in this scenario?

"who exactly has to be eliminated for peoples' better life." - what do you mean by eliminated? And who are the candidates?
