   Which of his books or writings would I turn to if I want to hear him expound upon this in more detail (and if possible in an English translation of his own).

   I don't think this holds up. WalMart choosing not to stock a product doesn't mean that the product won't be made at all . WalMart doesn't decide to stop stocking Hanes underwear because Hanes ships boxers to KMart and

   I've never been able to understand a word of him. I've seen the famous Chomsky/Foucault debate. I understood Chomsky perfectly well. Many people have informed me that Foucault completely bested him. I couldn't tell b

   "The pain OP feels is the realization he's a fraud" Holy judgment, Batman! I think the gnawing pain he's experiencing is the FEAR that he's a fraud (which I think is far from a decided matter). What an awful thing

    In this case, I think it's because the general perception is that we're expected to praise him for this (Twitter announcement, press releases) and there is a backlash against that expectation. Also I got downvoted for my first com

    I disagree with the characterization of people who think he could have used his means more effectively than this as "ungrateful, entitled assholes." Are we required to celebrate everything a wealthy man does with his money as long

    I do not drive recklessly, get in trouble with the law, or change jobs like gloves. I am, by most accounts I would think, a normal, decent citizen. My credit is still pretty shot because I hurt my leg before I had health insurance or a jo
