Noam Chomsky: US Military Escalation Against Russia Would Have No Victors
- leephillips 5y ago“His intellectual stature has been compared to that of Galileo, Newton and Descartes” Do I have to point out how obscene this is?
- didgeoridoo 5y agoI think “right-ish about a few big things early in his career, then became increasingly bizarre and unhinged” could broadly describe all those characters.

- YeGoblynQueenne 5y agoIt's cringeworthy, it discredits the interviewer and does a disservice to the interviewee who was probably not aware of the exaggeration.
- atonse 5y agoI like reading Noam Chomsky‘a take because even though I often don’t fully agree, I always learn something new because his sources are pretty solid. Especially here was the state department cable from 2004 about Russia’s concerns about Ukraine joining NATO. One thing I do agree with him (and others obviously) is that this is a war crime. And also this attack only strengthens NATO. So it’s quite an own-goal.
