Happy to hear that Noam Chomsky is out of hospital and recovering and that reports of his death were, as it were, greatly exaggerated.

@aral Gosh, how I'd love to have even a quarter of his wit at his age ... and to get to his age as well 😅

Honouring Noam Chomsky's denial of genocides in Bosnia, Rwanda and Cambodia when he dies I will deny this ever happened

Update: his death greatly exaggerated? (https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/India/what-happened-to-noam-chomsky-reports-of-american-professors-death-false-says-wife/ar-BB1osWnx) 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. https://jacobin.com/2024/06/noam-chomsky-obituary-media-theory-elites/ #noamChomsky

@aral Free after a quote from the first episode of "The Newsroom". "A doctor pronounces the death of a person, not the media."
@aral dude is like a load bearing human, he's integral to the structure
@aral Glad he’s ok. We need great minds like his.
