Noam Chomsky is America’s greatest intellectual ????????

Never mind Richard Feynman, the guy who thinks socialism works and apologizes for Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot's murdering tens of millions is America's greatest intellectual.

I am not sure if your comment about apologising for Stalin / MAO etc is aimed at Chomsky or not. But you should be aware that Chomsky is an anarchist socialist and not a Marxist. He has written and spoken some of the most illuminating and critical stuff I have read on the revolution in Russia.

Chomsky has never supported any Marxist dictator.
