View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?
I know of nobody who matches Chomsky’s intellectual strength, not even anyone who comes close. However, as someone else has mentioned here, Chris Hedges is a heavyweight in his own right.

NOPE. Chris Hedges is not a heavy weight intellectual but a gifted and important journalist writer and activist. He is not radical but a New Deal Social Democrat the core of whose thinking is Christian.
