125. so what if people see Chomsky as problematic
he never claimed to speak for the Democrats so what has that got to do with anything?

Apart from the oft debunked lie that he ws a Pol Pot apologist why else do you view him as "not the best source", just as you don't need to "explain" your love of goats Chomsky doesn't have to "explain" his "excusing" about Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge, because both are LIES.

People may find Chomsky's attitude whatever they wish, however if they equate what he said as apologia for Pol Pot's crimes then they are ignorant.

I can find most Democrats corporate shills but if I claim they made apologies for war criminals then I better be able to back it up.
