Chomsky is from the Americas. His mum and dad were Jewish Immigrants from Ukraine which back then was part of the Russia Empire. His dad, William, decided to leave Russia in 1913 to avoid being conscripted. William found work in a Baltimore Sweatshop. He went to University. When William's son, Noam Chomsky was ten he wrote an essay on the Anarcho-Syndicalist movement that briefly thrived in Barcelona before being crushed by Franco's fascists. The crux of the Anarcho-Syndicalist argument is that a person's productive life is central to his being and people should be in control of their own productive lives. Fascists don't believe that.
