Good start, now read Parenti

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I've read Parenti but the two are more complementing each other rather than disproving so i never understood the whole Parenti-Chomsky "feud" apart from being sectarian shitstirring.

It's less a feud and more a graduation away from Chomsky's faults and limitations toward Parenti who is unabashed in his defense of peoples' defense and liberation with an explicit practice of historical materialism

Nah, it's definitely a sectarian feud. You calling those "faults and limitations" tells me that you're on one side of that feud.

It's not a feud, it's just two writers/lecturers and one is a socialist while the other is not.

Another one on one side of the feud.

Noam is wrong about a lot of things, important things, if that sets me on a "sect" apart from him, so be it
