finally something good from chomsky

Chomsky has some good reads/critiques. I mean, if you'd like to post an example of something on which you entirely disagree with him it may help your point and start an interesting debate :)

His critiques of AES is revisionist and verges on dogmatic anti communism. He is a poor socialist.

Do you mean AES the encryption protocol? :P

Sorry i have no clue what you're talking about and i fail to see Chomsky as anti-communist although i'm open to arguments. I've read him time and time again dismantle capitalist / libertarian arguments... So feel free to link an article explaining what you're talking about :)

"He has said that contrary to what many in America claim, the collapse of the Soviet Union should be regarded as "a small victory for socialism", not capitalism." This is some major bullshit, and stems from the most westernized viewpoint I can imagine. It's just Pathetic. AES means Actually Existing Socialism.

Starting with George W Bush, who is a mass-murderer and a war criminal.

george bush laying flowers to commemorate victims of war in ukraine and demanding justice to war criminals behind it is when universe should have collapsed onto itself, and blissful void regained reign over this nonsense called reality

not starting with him; the ones before him were too.
