Hamas Attacks Israel

This is for topical issues effecting our fair world... you can quit snickering anytime. Note: It is the desire of the leadership of SFDebris Conglomerate that all posters maintain a civil and polite bearing in this forum, regardless of how you feel about any particular issue. Violators will be turned over to Captain Janeway for experimentation.

You and Bill Mayer are the two guys who really epitomize obnoxious Leftist douchebags.

And I say that as an obnoxious leftist.
It seems we have an interesting problem. Because i'm obviously on the Right and yet a lot of what Chomsky says makes perfect sense to me. How can you disagree with any of these quotes? https://www.brainyquote.com/lists/autho ... sky-quotes

Has Chom ever actually called himself a Lefty?
Noam Chomsky describes himself as an anarcho-syndicalist and libertarian socialist, and is considered to be a key intellectual figure within the left wing of politics of the United States.

So, yes.
Ah, libertarian. That makes sense now. He's not part of modern Leftism - he's what Leftism used to be before it morphed into its current rather intolerant form. I cannot see someone like Chom sending death threats to JK Rowling because she says mean things on Twitter.

Noam is far less partisan than bill. Bill isn’t really science/data averse, but clearly has ideas before coming in the room.

Somebody had to rename Twitter, and he was the only one that could do it. I don’t think there’s anybody in the universe that would disagree.

There's also the fact she supported horrible people like Matt Walsh due to his gender critical views even though he defended p*dophilia and gender critical activist Kaeley Triller Harms who's an actual p*dophile but that's a whole different story.

So the genocide continues and the president is backing it all the way. I feel sick knowing that I voted for Biden.
