“when confronted with concrete evidence that he has either gotten an analysis horribly wrong or lent his imprimatur to those who did, Chomsky immediately shifts into defense lawyer mode with all the pedantic testiness of a right-libertarian drawing distinctions between hebephelia and ephebephilia.”

Obligatory "I was suspicious from the start" haha. I'm recently political but Chomsky vs Zizek I always thought Zizek was more compelling because I'm autistic and in my personal "logic first" I default into "Oh the argument will win" caused many breakdowns because it doesn't explain contradictions.
