A commenter on Michael Brook’s YouTube channel reminded me of this.
Remember this old exchange between Noam Chomsky and Sam Harris?
I’m not a Chomsky fan, so I’m not saying this out of bias toward him: it is bizarre to me how incapable Harris seemed to be of grasping where he was a) going wrong in this exchange and b) unable to grasp how absurd his assumptions about ethics are.
Far more cringe inducing and puzzling than Chomsky’s debate with Foucault, which is actually interesting and rewarding in the same areas of concern.
