i understand politics as a variant of philosophy.
so it's not negation for it's own sake that's at the center of the game.
chomsky is not a Prophet who descends from the Mountain with The New Information.
he's an embedded actor like anyone else whose work is frequently useful, generally interesting, and is sometimes just wrong.
for example, i remain very ambivalent about his position on the faurrisson affair, and i read his earlier stuff on cambodia....
