A truly fascinating list of comments on an anti-capitalist demagog posing as a “scientist”, employing non-scientific methodology for the capitalistic achievement of personal wealth.
Will some linguist do a paper on the corruption of the word “science” in today’s academic world. Because the principles of scientific investigation are applied to studies of a subject does not render the conclusions “science”. The “Social Science” which pervades academia is a ridiculous term: an oxymoron. “The explanation is nothing but a description” of a postulation that is unprovable by the basic standards of true science.
Naom Chomsky is simply a brilliant scholar and charlatan, deliberately dealing in obfuscation and falsification, knowing that didactic bravado and bluster will gain him academic stature and financial reward. If he had, instead, applied his talents to the commercial world he could have become a second Ponzi. His “studies” have about as much value as the reading of chicken guts. His political rantings have as much merit as Che Guevera’s.
