View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?
Vijay Prashad or Parenti, however the latter is as ancient as Chomsky and no longer in the public.

Vijay is not an American for all the USA proud fascists playing at home, but he is virtually Chomsky's understudy even though Vijay isn't an Anarchist like the Noamstar is.

Parenti had a lot of unscientific opinions about the former USSR.

Chomsky has always critcized Marxism, saying it belongs in the category of organized religion[1], and calls Marx basically a theorist of 19th century capitalism who barely makes any mention of socialism. "To assume that it offers a doctrine for today makes no sense."

Why would you think Vijay or Parenti come close to Chomsky?
