I just wrote a paper on Dewey... Chomsky's summarizing it much better than I did

[boing3887]

this is from noam chomsky's stony brook lecture series

The two major American intellectuals most influenced by Dewey where Chomsky and Rorty; it is not mistake that they where much more interesting than there contemporary.

Mendelssohn's Octet plays in the background for the last few seconds! One of the greatest pieces ever written! And he was 16!

@S2Cents Don't bother any more with this imbecile, his statements are so devoid of genuine interest in the topic that barring him being a troll he's not worth talking to.

@S2Cents Chomsky needs to debate Christoher Hitchens on foreign policy.

@S2Cents Chomsky lived on a kibbutz in Israel. He left. This is when lies began.

[S2Cents]

Also stupid as fuck is you saying someone must leave their country and move to the country closest to their ideology or economic views. Makes a lot of sense. Not. You claim that instead of fighting for what you believe in, in your own country you should just leave. Plus, as for the ex. of Chomsky, that is especially absurd that you think he believes in the system Castro set up.

@JayGatsbyOdysseus You succeeded in drawing me back. What I indicated was I think you're fucked up and not worth conversing with. Just to be clear. Your posts are so ridiculous they indicate you're an idiot and/or a troll. Look, if you cannot understand the idea of somebody criticizing their country and also wishing to remain there despite the evils one perceives in it, you're an idiot.

[JayGatsbyOdysseus]

@S2Cents You have now entered ad homenin situation where you are attacking me personally and not my argument. This indicates that I have won and you have lost. You no longer have substance to convey but only virulent emotion toward speaker. You lose.

[S2Cents]

@JayGatsbyOdysseus If I just converted you to voting Republican you're a moron. But more likely you're just some jack off looser. I'm done. Have a nice existence fuck head.
