   Noam Chomsky is a litmus for fecal nonsense. I can't recall once across 30 yrs when he said anything right or wise. Much like that vile gnome Yoda -and DTrump- he growls/grumps nonsense while fans nod, citing him in book quotes and mind-poison virals.

     @davidbrin @howlinhobbit Wow, tell me you’re a simpleton without telling me you’re a simpleton. Sure, I don’t agree with the equating say, the evil of Putin’s Russia with America (which would you rather live in?) but to say he’s never said anything right in 30 years? Dude, know I’m blocking you not because I’m angry but because I don’t have time for your kind of stupid in my life.

     @fishidwardrobe @howlinhobbit Sorry, don’t know who he is. But definitely know who Chomsky is. 🤷♂️

     @aral @howlinhobbit Mate, you can call him wrong -- for all I know he may be -- but David Brin? A simpleton? ROFL.

     I mean, hurl random insults at whoever you like, I guess. But at least make the insults credible.
