Chomsky is the old dude in the upper right hand corner of the left-libertarian side. Although Chomsky claims to be an anarcho-syndicalist and wrote Manufacturing Consent, he was in the Epstein files:
Apparently Epstein “collected” scientists, and besides his social work, Chomsky is also a renowned linguist. (Like if you read textbooks on natural language processing and the author starts with a historical overview, Chomsky will show up.) But based on his (non-)responses so far, I am (and basically anyone who knows about Epstein stuff is) highly skeptical that Chomsky didn’t know about Epstein’s monstrous activities.
This is a bit off topic but in uni I was in a computer linguists group that strongly opposed Chomsky’s theory. In my master thesis about Role and Reference Grammar, I quoted from this article: Blame Chomsky For Non Speaking AI
I guess that’s part of why I never looked too deep into his politics and now I feel like I knew it all along. It’s a similar feeling as the one I have for never having liked Harry Potter. It’s the feeling that I’m a better anarchist than you.
That’s way more interesting than whatever crap I was on about! My current research area is in dynamical systems, so I’ve seen formal languages in the context of discrete-event systems, i.e. finite-state machines, Petri nets, etc. (E.g., the logic inside a traffic light is a discrete-event system.) That, and the LLM textbook I’ve been reading in my free time (Large Language Models: A Deep Dive by Kamath et al). (I’m gonna read the actual papers eventually, but I want to get a basic overview of the current state of the art before I do.) So I’m definitely not an expert on linguistics or computer science; my background is more engineering + applied math.
We have multiple angles of Noam Chomsky in Jeffrey Epstein’s plane (12-18 dump). Even if Epstein broke no laws, his nominal position as a financier and banker makes him the enemy as an anti-capitalist. More on that in a minute. But before Chomsky started talking to Epstein, if the currently existing emails are known, he either did not stop talking to, or worse, started talking to Epstein after Epstein plead guilty to sex crimes involving minors.
We have a photo of Chomsky being chummy with known fascist Steve Bannon. Now do I expect Chomsky to go full antifa supersoldier and beat the tar out of Steve Bannon? No, he’s a dinosaur in that photo. But it shows that Chomsky is comfortable talking with the enemy. It would be like if you saw a photo of Emma Goldman chilling with Joseph Goebbels; I don’t know about you, but I just wouldn’t be able to trust her anymore!
IMO any one of these things would be enough for me to dump Chomsky. There’s a big club, and you ain’t in it — but Chomsky is!
Chomsky is skeevy as fuck. That’s not speculation anymore.

oh yeah, that’s fuck up, i’ll edit the meme
Also if you’re editing, it’s probably a good idea to toss Bakunin too.
I’ve already figured that out from other comments and have edited him out, thank you for letting me know
Chomsky also quite explicitly supported russia after the full-scale Ukraine invasion started. So yeah, he’s all kinds of asshole.

Is that the “critical support” so popular on .ml?
Ah, of course it can’t be the aggressor’s fault. Everyone else must be wrong.

Oh, I wouldn’t dare lay hands on your favourite.
Though you might want to take your “US bad therefore russia good” campist shit back to the tankie instances, where it belongs.
Keep beating that straw man.
Keep glazing Chomsky
Keep trolling, troll.

Bury your heroes, but also refrain from attacks that are biased or speculative.
Buddy, that is a photograph. I do not need to speculate about Chomsky: he’s skeevy. QED.
The photograph shows a man seated in a chair. Get a grip.
Oh I see, you’re not wearing your glasses. Here, borrow mine. 👓
Glasses cannot correct your deficits in critical thinking,
Okay let me be a little more constructive.
Chomsky appears in some of these images within the dumps produced from the Epstein estate by the Oversight Democrats:

Now here’s what I noticed:

The worst thing he did was sit on a plane.
Seriously, get a grip.
