I too find Chomsky a bit too far to the left, and indeed he doesn't have all the answers in his worldview. The questions you pointed out seem important.
Nevertheless, the list of techniques and examples of media manipulation that he has painstakingly documented in his book is valuable in its own right. You don't have to agree with all or even most of Chomsky to give due consideration to some of his work.
- deepyearning 12y agoI totally agree that Chomsky is worth reading and I'm trying to get around to reading his books myself. In my view he is very consistent, and this consistency makes it easier to understand the inconsistency of mainstream American liberals.
