View submission: Who comes close to Chomsky today?

View parent comment

Nothing wrong with learning from the useful parts of Marxism, like class analysis, while disregarding and disavowing its latent authoritarianism, which Chomsky despised.

k, i'm invoking my "gone all prosey" mode

as a nice transition

for you & your somewhat semi-bardic crew.

There is one constant in life

- that of impermanence

yet so many

(Abrahamic gaslit West especially),

have the propensity to white knuckle

CHANGE (anarchy/chaos)

90% of the time,

ridiculously and ferociously,

knowing ...

the longer water can't run,

the less life it supports,

ever more so on social media.

Both Noam and Vijay save lives the same way.

The very lives

now enforced

"sacrificed"

by the likes of

Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andressen, Ben Horotwitz, Brian Armstrong, David Sacks, JD Vance, Balaji Srinivasan, Curtis Yarvin ...

so I'm glad you are no longer splitting hairs.
