What Anthony Fantano and Noam Chomsky have in common

in #politics7 years ago

Really interesting analysis here from 1791L pertaining to Anthony Fantano's recent comments made on twitter trying to discredit professor Jordan B Peterson. For someone who fancies themselves a critic, I thought Fantano provided a pretty weakly constructed criticism of Peterson while hurling some pretty hefty slander his way. It's funny how Fantano feels the need to make this strong opinion public, but doesn't ask Peterson for an interview or really try to open up a conversation up in any way whatsoever. 1791L parallels this sort of activity with the activity of other prominent left wing figures (namely Chomsky).
