View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?

Nathan J. Robinson

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathan_J._Robinson

He cites Noam Chomsky as his main political influence

He already is incredibly prolific. He’s only 34 or 35 yet has twelve books published already, sixteen if counting his illustrated books

He will reply to you if you email him, just as Chomsky did

Robinson’s main focus on “what to do” is organize social movements, as was Chomsky’s.

I don’t remotely trust him. He allegedly effectively fired most of his staff when they started organising their workplace.

It has been quite effectively memory holed, which is itself interesting.
