Chomsky is amusing to read periodically (but please not on hacker news) because he's usually right on context but totally wrong on his conclusions. It is not "illegal aliens" or "blacks" that will be the victims in the new regime, it is capitalism. You can see it already. We have a president who just signed a bill giving the government the power to dictate what appears on websites (eg: for accessibility, but these things are never used just for their stated purpose.) who has sought the power to arbitrarily cut off internet services (eg: the kill switch) and who, at every opportunity denigrates and attacks those who are capitalist or successful. ("The rich" is just code words for capitalists and capitalism.)
