The rumors circulated today that Noam Chomsky had passed away are NOT true. We have been in communication with his wife, Valeria, for confirmation today. A few major publications have taken down their obviously pre-prepared Chomsky "memorial" articles that were posted earlier today. A little rigor & decency is in order above the race to be first. Let's honor Chomsky's example in this way.

#introduction Chomsky once said: “We shouldn't be looking for heroes, we should be looking for good ideas… All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume.” We’ll be sharing Chomsky’s wisdom and related work, not to engage in hero-worship, but to support and inspire all of you here at @nos with ideas. Through participation in this project, we’re building revolution together. ✊ Brought to you by Noam’s friends at ZNetwork.org: Noam is one of the most impactful educators of our time and has been an invaluable contributor to @npub1xm0r...gs6s over the decades. We’re excited to learn about your work and to discuss some essential Chomsky.

Excited to share some classic Chomsky in a decentralized and algorithm-free ecosystem. This consent ain’t manufactered.
