Chomsky (thread from hell)
I remember Chomsky being quoted (I think in a Mother Jones issue) something to the effect that the opposition to "political correctness" was not legitimate. Apparently, Chomsky finds at least one kind of oppression to be not distasteful. At a Chomsky lecture that I attended, Chomsky described himself as a left libertarian. I surmise that he finds that grassroots oppression by the left to be ok. I realize, of course, that "political correctness" has great mass media & State support. Yours Truly, Gary Jeffers
My apologies to everyone for starting this thread. I will try to restrain myself from making any further inflammatory posts that would tend to keep the thread going. But a clarification. The reason I call Chomsky a totalitarian is not because of his mild support for political correctness. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we James A.
