Being from russia, it is lib yes, but then again irrelevant as chomsky didn’t have anything to do with it. I still harbor much darker feelings toward Kissinger and gorbachev (out of alive people). As this comment started “why not the other guy getting dementia” (or at least could be read this way), this “other guy” example can be just as well a true ghoul, and not lose any meaning :sadness-abysmal:
Oh sure if we're ranking people as a whole then I'd much rather any horrible fate befell Kissinger and actual ghouls first, but if we're going in the category of "left adjacent old people" then I'd rather bad things not happen to the best ones
Bro, how come his mind goes, but :die-motherfucker: stays
With op’s.
Framing of left-adjacent is forced by op, it’s not required by comment intention. Additionally arguing which left figure would rather get dementia has same energy as who do you love more, mother or father? There is no good outcome to answer, so argument is bad by itself
"Who do you love more, mother or father" is a very easy question though, I hate my dad less than I hate my mom so it's him.
I don't think there's anything wrong with keeping an ordered list of people you'd rather not have bad things happen to. I think it goes without saying for most of the site that Kissinger is at or near the top, and I don't think there's any problem with not listing him every time.
I will always disagree that there's anything wrong with OP comparing a leftist and a left-anticommunist that famously had beef with him, and wishing that the good one was doing better than the other.
I mean sectarianism is wrong, at least completely unprovoked. Reading this comment for anarchist would be somewhat shitty, while kissinger one would be fine.
a) riddle me this:
No author works in a vacuum. This critique builds on work that came before it. I want to express my gratitude to persons who played no active role in the preparation of this manuscript but whose efforts provided a valuable foundation and inspiration for my own, specifically George Seldes, James Aronson, Noam Chomsky Herbert Gans, Robert Cirino, Todd Gitlin, Alexander Cockburn, Peter Drier, Andrew Kopkind, Edward Herman , -preface to Inventing Reality
b) he cites herman throughout the book, which quick ctrl-f will confirm for you
I've read lorenzoe article, the failure to cite is whatever academic failure. That chomsky found a niche to grift himself a living by not pissing the state too much, and being leftward manufactured consent victim - sure. I wouldnt wish dementia on him tho

Ok, compare following comment:

Sorry for comparison :meow-hug:

Chomsky isn't an anarchist though, he doesn't call himself one?
Isn’t he ansyn?
He's close enough to ruffle some feathers. At least in the past.
