Noam Chomsky is the Ayatollah of anti-Americanism. All he does is diss America in fancy academic ways. He has been doing this since 900 BC. The guy is super old.

Age doesn't discredit what he says, thats a genetic fallacy, Noam Chomsky is the most respected public intellectual in modern time. He criticizes American policy because he is an American, its his job as citizen to critic his own state.

''Anti-American'' is a pure totalitarian concept. It's a classic technique of Social control..

I'll let Noam explain it...

CHOMSKY: The concept “anti-American” is an interesting one. The counterpart is used only in totalitarian states or military dictatorships, something I wrote about many years ago (see my book Letters from Lexington). Thus, in the old Soviet Union, dissidents were condemned as “anti-Soviet.” That’s a natural usage among people with deeply rooted totalitarian instincts, which identify state policy with the society, the people, the culture. In contrast, people with even the slightest concept of democracy treat such notions with ridicule and contempt. Suppose someone in Italy who criticizes Italian state policy were condemned as “anti-Italian.” It would be regarded as too ridiculous even to merit laughter. Maybe under Mussolini, but surely not otherwise.

Actually the concept has earlier origins. It was used in the Bible by King Ahab, the epitome of evil, to condemn those who sought justice as “anti-Israel” (“ocher Yisrael,” in the original Hebrew, roughly “hater of Israel,” or “disturber of Israel”). His specific target was Elijah.

It’s interesting to see the tradition in which the people you refer to choose to place themselves. The idea of leaving America because one opposes state policy is another reflection of deep totalitarian commitments. Solzhenitsyn, for example, was forced to leave Russia, against his will, by people with beliefs very much like those you are quoting.

Trump trashed that theory. The entire elite establishment was against him, yet he conquered the so-called ''manufactured (centrist neo-liberal) consent''.

Elaborate.

This is a theory about media propaganda. I am not sure how trump destroy the theory. The Media manufactured consent for a Donald Trump presidency by giving him wall-to-wall coverage.

They gave him more air time than other candidates. More scrutiny and attention then other candidates, more mentions then other candidates.

This article sums it up greatly
