Aral Balkan on Nostr: I may not have agreed with every one of his positions in later life but Noam Chomsky ...
I may not have agreed with every one of his positions in later life but Noam Chomsky was one of the defining people in opening my eyes to the world as it is versus how I’d taken it to be at face value (as someone who didn’t have to question it while growing up in a relatively privileged environment).
Rest in peace, Noam. The world has lost a great mind and an even greater conscience today.
