      Anyone who decries metoo as “cancel culture” is not a comrade in my book.

      Ignore this

      Incoming leftist infighting accusations.

      Exactly. This is not participating in a capitalist society because we are stuck in it, it’s cozying up to people cranking up the orphan crushing machine, and picking one of the worst ones at that. Chomsky can’t even see the line that made him an hypocrite from where he’s standing anymore.

    wikipedia:

    Chomsky befriended him after Epstein’s 2008 conviction and remained in touch with him at least through 2017

    They fucking knew who they were dealing with and why

    The Chomskys are so full of shit. If you read any of Epstein’s emails it becomes apparent that he was a moron on top of everything else. He wasn’t dazzling Chomsky with his intellect or anything like that. There is something else they aren’t admitting. Or it could be that Chomsky worshipped capital more than he would like to admit. Or it could be both and it probably is.
