People of the left & right both must realize that, whatever its stated goals & allegiances, autocracy/caudillismo is its own ideology.
If you wanted a good example of wealthy, privileged men rushing to defend one another‘s absolutely indefensible behavior, you could do worse then this piece of pro-Chomsky blowjobbery by Chavez/Maduro groupie Greg Grandin defending Chomsky‘s friendship with sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein.

I've seen a lot of man's inhumanity to man in my work as a journalist over the years, but few stories I've worked on have given me the sense of moral & physical revulsion as this one about Noam Chomsky's relationship with the sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein. michaeldeibert.substack.com/p/no-chomsky
No, Chomsky
The revelations about the linguist’s relationship with the predator Jeffrey Epstein are a fitting epitaph to a disgraceful career.

I won't share Trump's vile words about Rob Reiner & Michele Singer, but I'll say they serve as a reminder that he's the most repellent, hateful person to ever occupy such a position in American public life & those who voted for him knew that. He poisons everything his touches & deserves our contempt
