Yes, it's all the Iraqis fault. And I'm sure you sincerely believe that despite it being utterly insane.

> Are you suggesting the media, hollywood, and universities aren't left-leaning?

Ironically, you've aptly demonstrated the entire point. If you asked this question to most people outside of America (you know, the other 7.3 billion people on the planet) I think many would probably agree that no, American media, Hollywood and universities are not left-leaning at all, not even in the slightest. But in America perception has been so completely warped that it's become a "common-sense truth" that the media is left-leaning. This whole banal game, as Chomsky describes it quite clearly[1], is to use propaganda to create a wholly isolated and controllable alternative reality.

BTW I also have to point out, though I don't give a shit about HN points, the genuinely humorous irony of downvoting these comments. I mean come on.
