I have probably called Trump a dangerous buffoon often enough–calling out Chomsky is still important because (a) it's much more likely having an effect on him, since it's coming from "his" people, and (b) it does get noticed on the right as well. I still remember being all warm and fuzzy inside when John McCain told some lunatic at a rally that, no, Barack Obama is not a secret muslim al-quaeda terrorist.
Plus, you know, he's wrong–that should usually be enough reason to challenge him.
- cam_l 10y agoIt is pretty crazy that John McCain has found himself on the left fringe of his party. Warmongering SOB that he is. But I am not so sure Chomsky is categorically 'wrong'.. wrong phrasing or wrong to say it maybe. Besides I took 'stage' to mean fake, like Wag the Dog fake, rather than stage as in false flag.. which at least shows that what he said was not clear cut. Not clear cut enough to call him a conspiracy nut, and not after what, 60 years of service to humanity.
