| | | I wanna have Noam Chomsky's babies So why does nobody intelligent ever criticize him? Is it because he's perfect?
I know he's supposed to be an anti-semite and all the bullshit like that, but why can I only find websites criticizing him that are written by juvenile grad student Republican philosophy majors? Oh yeah and Alan Dershowitz. Who probably never had anything useful to say about politics until his favorite country was getting criticized. Total snore, but I'm reading him anyway. Is there anyone else?
If you hate Chomsky please supply websites that counter-argue (or your own counter-arguments). In the meantime I suppose I'll order the anti-Chomsky reader. |

| | | Chumpsky's anti semitism possibly stems from his defense of holocaust denier, Robert Faurisson. |

| | | I imagine Chomsky would be cold and unfeeling in bed... Monotone and bare-bones.

I will state that the socio-cultural implications of what we just did are relatively benign at this point. You are adequate, and if at a later date I wish to copulate, I will contact you." |

| | Now that's classic Noam.
Brava and her gang use to post shit by him constantly.
Is it any wonder why leftists love him so much.
Although his defense of holocaust deniers is a new revelation to me. I'm going to have fun with that one.  |

It is this commitment to free inquiry and the power of mythical thinking that explains, at least in part, how revisionists have attracted leading figures and institutions. Noam Chomsky is probably the best known among them. Chomsky wrote the introduction to a book by French revisionist Robert Faurisson. In it Chomsky argued that scholars' ideas cannot be censored no matter how distasteful they may be. Though Alfred Kazin was right on target when he recently described Chomsky as a "dupe of intellectual pride so overweening that he is incapable of making distinctions between totalitarian and democratic societies, between oppressors and victims," Chomsky's argument shocked many people, including those who thought they were inured to Chomsky's antics.

Kazin's remark about Noam reflects mine.  |

| | | Chomsky's sort of a side-line figure, people in mainstream academe don't really criticize him per-se because his ideas are so extreme and condemnations so fierce they don't really fit in to any popular discourse. There's no point in 'debunking Chomsky' because what are you debunking? Chomsky really has no stance except for emotional arrows about every US president deserving to be hanged by Nuremberg protocol. That a lot of banging about violations international law. Chomsky more or less states the facts and morally indicts America on them. Political scientists ONOH have to take accountability for their positions, they have to offer real solutions to geopolitical problems. Chomskys declaration that he is an "anarcho-syndicalist", a childish philosophy, basically disqualifies him from civilized debate. If you want rebuttals of AS theyre not hard to find. The same goes for his "understanding power". Rebuttals of that paranoid theory of the media have come from many learned corners. You can find them on Amazon if you read the reviews for the book or probable even wikipedia. As for "syntactic structures", there are no rebuttals to that except from stubborn behaviorists, because Chomsky was right on that one. Basically, in politics, Chomsky is only really relevant in undergraduate circles. |

| Freedom of speech. You can't have it both ways, All the rights you were talking about for homosexuals in Palestine. Chomsky is talking about freedom of speech. |

Holocaust deniers are perfectly free to present their ignorant claims all they want. Doesn't mean their anti Semitic remarks should go unchallenged.
Would you criticize those who counter protest at nazi rallies? Are they denying a nazi's freedom of speech? |

| | | I never knew anything about him being a holocaust denier, I know there was a controversy about him and the Khmer Rouge. Basically Chomsky spent about a decade apologising for slaughterhouse Cambodia, saying it was all hyperbole and propaganda created by the communist hating West. Basically he showed a surprising amount of moral relativism (for a moral fanatic) regarding the whole affair. He spoke pragmatically about “comparative costs”; i.e. Pot wasn’t such a bad guy, he was doing the best he could. But then the facts became insurmountable and Chomp pretty much shutup on that issue. |
