View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?
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.

Vijay is an avowed Marxist. 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."

To say he is virtually Chomsky's understudy seems pretty at odds with Chomsky's views and solutions in the realm of geopolitics and philosophy.
