I too would choose Ben Carson over Noam Chomsky to look at middle east politics. Also doesn't help his cause that he's saying all this in a discussion with Dave Rubin. Lock if old.Trump and the left are now mirror images of one another. And the answer to Trump can't be ... take it off Trump for a second ... the answer to the excesses of identity politics and populism and unreason on the right can't be amplifying all of that on the left. I think it will be in fact a losing strategy going forward. It is more of a renunciation of everything that makes the left good than it is on the right.
If you go far enough right, you're not expecting to meet rational open ended conversation about the nature of reality. You're expecting to meet neo-Nazis the KKK and that's what you in fact meet. But my problem is I'm meeting the same level of demagoguery and dishonesty and cynicism and mere gamesmanship on the left much much closer to where we all are living. Just interacting with a reporter from Salon or Vox. I mean who's there? I'm meeting someone who essentially has the intellectual and moral integrity of the guy in the white hood over on the right. And that asymmetry is totally alarming to me.
