- emmelaich 10y agoSo you might summarise Chomsky's book as "some people are more persuasive than others" Does he also say that these people may be powerful because they are persuasive?
- Retra 10y agoIt is easy to be persuasive when you are asking people to simply remain as they are: uninformed on important matters.
- elliotec 10y agoI think it's more along the lines of they are persuasive because they are powerful. The golden rule: he who has the gold makes the rules.
- emmelaich 10y agoWell of course they're persuasive because they are more powerful. That's the main theme (as I understand it) and agree. I was suggesting the other way is true too.
