Distortions at Fourth Hand
On June 6, 1977, Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman published an article titled *Distortions at Fourth Hand*. It was a fierce attack on the attitude of the Western media.
The argument was that the press of the so-called free world was, in reality, merely a propaganda machine whose sole purpose was to destroy the alternative social model represented by communist countries.

“if knowledge is a journey across an unknown ocean, even the bravest explorer cannot do without maps and a compass to avoid retracing the same routes endlessly.”

“The era we live in has provided humanity with extraordinary tools, forcing us to view the world differently than we did not so long ago. It presents us with new challenges and demands that we confront new problems. Retreating into the past, evoking the idea of eternal conflict, will not eliminate the challenges that lie ahead.”

“Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.”
― Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”
