Seyorni said:Why would you hate Chomsky? His historical works are meticulously fact-checked and footnoted. They're certainly more accurate and give a broader view of history than anything you read in High School (or is this part of the problem?) His views on society and capitalism, somewhat extreme 40 years ago, become more and more prophetic and mainstream as the years go by.
Do you also hate that pinko Eisenhower for his Chomskyesque warning about the military-industrial complex?
Seyorni said:Interesting. I've never got the impression of an impractical, anti-individualist when reading Chomsky. And he is distinctly "free people."
He does have issues with American capitalism and certain aspects of free-trade economics, but his objections are well researched and supported. One might challenge his data and conclusions, but I see no reason for animosity against him.
