We Remember Noam Chomsky, the Intellectual and Moral Giantjacobin.com More than any other thinker in the postwar era, Noam Chomsky embodied Karl Marx’s favorite dictum: “nothing human is alien to me.”

Looks like The New Statesman published, then un-published, a (clearly pre-written) Chomsky obit from Yanis Varoufakis. archive.is/P35WA

good news Noam Chomsky is still alive everyone get mad at Jacobin

that’s my secret Cap, I’m always mad at Jacobin

Wait wait I can believe he’s alive, but “well” feels like it may be pushing it

I was hoping he was dead

I'm not dead!!

Alternatively just laugh at them.

He apparently had a stroke a few days ago?

Linguist and activist Noam Chomsky hospitalized in his wife's native country of Brazil after strokeapnews.com Linguist and activist Noam Chomsky is hospitalized in his wife’s native country of Brazil after suffering a massive stroke a year ago.

I just saw a news story about him leaving the hospital...

It is confusing. Stroke last year and was hospitalized in the US. Then was recently moved to São Paolo for different treatments not available in the US. Then, apparently, had another stroke. (If I followed what I read the other day.) We're on Jimmy Carter and Noam Chomsky watch, and it's very sad.
