Good interview David. I’ve learned three things from Prof. Chomsky over the decades-learn your subject, learn your subject, and learn your subject. Actually, there’s a fourth thing-be concise. There’s technically a fifth thing, but I already knew it-there’s no need to raise your voice to make a point.

Chomsky is surprisingly easy to interview. Not only does he respond to Joe Public regularly by email, you can find him doing interviews with everyone from top journalists (like David! hh) to random podcasters all the time. There are interviews out there with various 'unknowns' who have shot him an email and he responded. He also speaks regularly to quite extreme characters on the right. Don't forget, he did an interview with Alex Jones (2007) and even Stefan Molyneux (c. 2014). Chomsky is a true public intellectual who will speak to almost anyone.

With Jones it was in 2007, when he was not on everyone's radar (he was extreme, but he hid it by being against 'both sides'), and with Molyneux he made him look like a bit of a tool. Chomsky is very much an old-school activist who engages and debates his opponents. Today's progressives are often too scared of 'platforming' people, which is not obviously a better approach, in my opinion.

There was a time when guys like Chomsky were on air all the time. But then the “Crossfire” model took hold, where the right and the farther right argued minutiae and pretended it was vibrant debate. Fox News and hate radio have been immensely successful moving the Overton window to the point where a not insignificant minority of people believe that center left is “communism” and the middle exists between the corporatist right hand open fascism.

This was fantastic. Even at his age he’s so incredibly sharp and knowledgeable. You also did very well, showing due deference without getting down on your knees, and giving him the chance to speak and flesh out his positions. Thank you for bringing him on the show, David.

Noam Effing Chomsky! Considering the Right's obsession about the liberal media, having him on your show is brilliant.

@@EggEnjoyer I agree that we can draw some lines, but harassment and threats really don't have much to do with freedom of expression because we can communicate what we think without threatening or harassing other people. The courts may be concerned that imposing too much civility on our discussions may make people not willing to discuss much at all, but I think that most people would agree that banning harassments and threats is reasonable. Freedom of expression is mostly concerned with preventing governments and other authorities from stopping its people from hearing about certain subjects and viewpoints at all. So... I think it depends on what you mean by "fascist ideologies." The lines get really fuzzy once we start talking about punishing speeches that may be motivated by ignorance rather than malice. Especially if we have a hard time showing that the ideology was just that wrong in the first place. If you are talking about racist or other invidious stereotypes that are based on factors that people can't control, or on their deeply held beliefs, that's one thing, but for other ideas...

Indeed republicans are all about tribalism. There’s no sense of the greater good, or even satisfaction that we have the ability to help the ones in need.
