Chomsky and anti-imperialism

He worked for the military for years at MIT

That’s not disinformation there are many books written about this clear hypocrisy

This. He also vehemently denies it for some reason.

Saying he used to work for the military is different than saying he currently is employed by the military. Most scientist at the top of their fields will directly or indirectly be funded by the military through the universities they work at. Its called the Military INDUSTRIAL Complex for a reason. Alot of the military funding is being spent on research of technology that makes it public decades later.

And he chose to stay at MIT and help the government in their war effort, all while publishing endless essays condemning them.

So, what, you think that if Chomsky abandoned his university job, that would've seriously impeded the US war machine? This thought process is redolent of teenage individualist anarchists.

There's pretending that your dark energy research needs an NSF grant then there's working as a consultant for MITRE.

I didn’t say that. Lmao why are you defending Chomsky’s honor online?

...

I give him a break about working for MITRE, because the guy was in his 30s and America was coming out of ww2. When i was in college i majored in Mathematics and wanted into PHD program. There is alot of status in getting those positions at elite universities.

You aren't wrong tho, just my opinion
