We've left the part of the dialectic that involves argument, reason, and persuasion. Both sides have proven they refuse to truly hear each other or be persuaded. We are now in the arm yourself, pick a side, throw the dice, and lets see who wins history's lottery- phase of the dialectic. My money's on the group that uses bio-weapons first... which will probably be leftists, because they've always been cruel sadomasochistic fuckers, like Chomsky.

I can't even watch this guy for 2 minutes before spews so much garbage. "People who are so terrified they have to carry a gun to a coffee shop." This guy is so delusional and is the perfect example of what happens when you read too much. Yes he is right, in the perfect world we should even need guns. However in the REAL world there are evil people and/or mentally deranged people out there. If you take a step back from all his hot air, you realize he is anti-western, sadistic moron who doesn't believe in common human natures like self defense.

Yup, the most quoted man in history, a fearless public intellectual with a decades-long career, author of more books than you've read.... "spews so much garbage" because your uninformed opinion differs from his understanding.
Please don't reproduce.

He's an intellectual giant in the field of linguistics. That still doesn't give any credence to his delusional ramblings in poli sci, a field in which he isn't taken seriously by the professionals.

Chomsky calling anyone an extreme ideologue?
