- the_af 5y agoThanks for posting it. I knew Chomsky's position (that the US involvement in Vietnam was actually a war against South Vietnam, with North Vietnam as the excuse) but had never taken the time to actually read this interview in detail. Yes, this makes the whole ORM analogy fall apart, because it's based on a misconception. But I think the analogy still works when using the popular understanding of that war as the comparison.
