Chomsky. Didn't he argue that Leninism is a right-wing deviation from Marxism?

Didn't he argue that the Bolsheviks were actually counter-revolutionary?

Didn't he argue that voting blue (and reinforcing the 2-party dominance) is the smart strategic choice for its short-term harm reduction?

Didn't he argue that violent uprising is a gift to the right and we should only protest in peaceful, non-threatening ways?

This once-respected scholar used to be one of the few people who could sow doubt in my understanding, but now his opposition to all of these things galvanizes my belief in them. We see who stands to benefit from all of these positions he took.
