When fear becomes collective, when anger becomes collective, it’s extremely dangerous.

Big bad Republicans, who are completely racist and eat poor peoples babies while secretly planning to put negroes back to pick cotton, are out to get you, so better vote for Bernie to save yourself! Quickly, before the Republicans get you, you don't have much time.

Ah the sarcasm. If only you realize there's truth in it.
A Republican presidential candidate has based his entire candidacy on divisional rhetoric.
Another Republican presidential candidate wants to carpet bomb civilians.
And then there's the myth of the pragmatic progressive.

This video describes clearly the state of electing a president in an empire.

Noam Chumsky is a brilliant man, but all his stuff is theories and ideas.

Every single candidate is "divisional". You don't get a party nomination if you don't do that, for there is no "American" party. There are liberals and conservatives, D's and R's, you get the point... The most divisional are Democrats, they call everyone a racist, an anti-woman, Hitler, just about anything.

So the only difference is you picking the side you probably what easier appeals to you, if younger = Democrat, if older = Republican.

Whenever liberals want to drag out an "intellectual" they go pull old Noam out of the woodwork. In the times I get suckered into listening to him, I feel that his voice after about two minutes is like gargling nails. His circumlocutory rants are insane, nattering, endless logorrhea, like he needs his meds doubled or tripled to make him actually get some kind of syllogistic perspective going.

Taking a class from him, aside from the bizarre commentary, must be pure torture.

Excellent Ad-Hominem. Bravo! Not a single word actually critiquing the message.

That indicates you did not even listen to what he had to say. Mainstream academic papers, such as this are showing citizens have zero effect on public policy. Chomsky also cites IMF studies that show how subsidies benefit big corporations (corporate welfare).

Even with these practical references, calling what he says as "theories" is not sincere.

I think the establishment Democrats are divisive, but not Bernie.
He is pointing out why division is useful in a political sense, but very damaging in a human sense.
