Title: A Simple Introduction to a Very Simple Man
Review: The irony at work in this "for beginners" series is intensely gratifying to observe. The pauper heirs of 1968 intentionally encoded their ideologies in needlessly complex language. Their intent in this was to create a self-verifying ideological elite, and to limit their own accountability to those who had the intestinal fortitude and free time to decipher their blather. Nothing Chomsky says couldn't be said more simply, but then he'd lose his gnostic appeal.Of course such obfuscating misfired. Otherwise, why else would these patently insulting and patronizing booklings have arisen? I hope they sell by the millions, for they speak loudly of the failure of Chomsky, Kristeva, Derrida et al. to be comprehensible or relevant to anyone but themselves.
Is the review positive or negative?
