I guess the title of the article does lend itself to that assumption for sure, thanks for adding that reference here for everyone.

It's funny you mention Chomsky, now that I think about it there may be three reasons I didn't mention him or his work here which are all rather subjective:

• I hear that work referenced very often in the alternative media of past years so I felt it somewhat redundant. I always get suspicious whenever one individual is so unanimously hailed as a public hero.
• I wanted to feature century of the self in its own article as I hear about it very seldomly out there.
• I have dug into Chomsky's perspectives a bit deeper a few years ago and was utterly amazed and stunned at how much discrepancy there is between his reputation as a critical educator and his actual stance on systemic core issues.

Don't get me wrong, I think "manufacturing consent" was and is an important aspect of his life's work that has surely helped to open up the public's mind to how society is beeing steered. However, seeing and hearing him relate to critical issues like the FED or false flag attacks in an outright intellectually dishonest manner that will prevent countless people from digging deeper on their own I may have some bias on the man and hesitation in recommending his work to others, which should not really be the goal of this blog because I do want to share gems of insight no matter where they come from and what else the author has claimed. So thanks again for your suggestion.

To all those not familiar with Chomsky's questionable stance on critical issues, there are many gems to be found as well. A great and succinct introduction to what I mean has been done by the @corbettreport diving a little deeper into why Chomsky may not be the unequivocal truth-speaker many people regard him as:
