Left-wingers attacked radical leftist intellectual Noam Chomsky on Tuesday after he co-signed a statement in Harper’s criticizing cancel culture — several days after President Donald Trump did the same in his Mount Rushmore speech.
Several “verified” blue-checkmark users on Twitter were outraged that Chomsky, 91, should agree with Trump, albeit indirectly, or that he would push back against left-wing efforts to deny platforms to those who dispute its orthodoxies.
The Harper’s statement, titled “A Letter on Justice and Open Debate,” included Chomsky, J.K. Rowling, and others.

These leftist fools have been caught by their own devices. Chaos disciples want it ALL destroyed. You don't get to bell the tiger after you open the gate.

I was surprised to see his name attached to the letter. The left considers him to be a saint. How dare he side those closed minded conservatives. How dare he ...........To paraphrase Mz Thunberg.

Several of our local Dem pols have been caught trying to tone down the Marxists protesters calling for defunding the police and censoring anyone who doesn't agree with them.
The pols always do the "hey guys, let's tone this foolishness down, it's not helping us get reelected." To which the beast of their own making responds " What foolishness?! And who said. we wanted you reelected? "
You can almost see the shock in these liberal idiot politicians eyes at the startling knowledge that all the lies they knowing told these indoctrinated children for the last 20 years, the young gullible violent Marxist thugs believed wholeheartedly. I suspect those caught up in the French terror felt the same way.

“Goebbels was in favor of free speech for views he liked. So was Stalin. If you’re really in favor of free speech, then you’re in favor of freedom of speech for precisely the views you despise. Otherwise, you’re not in favor of free speech.”

Any counter opinion is seen as a heresy, hate speech, and must be stopped.
And it’s not just leftists suffering from this delusion. It’s a symptom of political rabies.

The is a Big Deal. Noam Chomsky is the unattributed source of much of the ugly, anti-American rhetoric that the Left spews out on a daily basis. In psychology there's something called Cognitive Dissonance, and I can't imagine how Liberals -- especially on college campuses -- will be able to deal with this news.

I'd like to indulge in a little Schadenfreude, but i'll refrain from it because it's so important that people on the Left wake up and shake off their delusions.
We're near the precipice, we're careening toward the edge. Because of the silliness of many who fancy themselves leftists, with their intellectual windbaggery, and the apathy of the self-satisfied indolent "moderates" --Dems and Repubs alike--, we find ourselves in mortal danger.
Two or three generations of kids have been propagandized and bamboozled into idiocy and self-congratulatory ignorance and stupefied by prolific sex and sensuality tripping and stumbling over the corpses of the Unborn. They are now screaming profanities and violence on the streets of major cities. And they want to eliminate any opposition voices. any opposition. not just ideas... but you, me, us.
Stalin's "paradox: In a world where individuals ceased to matter, all blame was assigned to them." (Inside the Stalin Archives; J. Brent) making the rampaging pubescent mobs so violent, ruthless, indiscriminate.
If anyone thinks they are safe in the burbs or in rural parts, these nihilists have got eyes in the back of their heads, and they are biding their time. That's what the Marxist-Leninists did in Russia: they radicalized the cities, and then sent their agents to the countryside to DESTROY any opposition and beat into submission the rest. Today, those barely-beyond puberty radicals are backed by the old radicals who see their ancient dreams of destroying the USA may be finally within their grasp.
Who knows if Chomsky can withstand the ostracization. Or if any of the signers can. Probably everyone finds that loneliness excruciating. A few people who have sidled over could be flippy-floppy, thinking of Frum. We have some people who have come over to the light, several out of the black community, who are incredible blessings to us. They have stood strong. We need those allies who are on the side of truth, & our Republic, we need to encourage them to stay in the battle, because we need them and they need us.
I do keep a skeptical eye on people who have come out of the Left, because they've already demonstrated a tendency toward irrationality.
For now, if we can stimulate discussion and self-inspection, they might see that intellectual freedom and personal liberty are found among conservatives.
