A Light Touch of Levity, by WonderLost 1 track album

In my dreams, I sometimes hear a distant song echoing through the canyons of tall buildings in a big city, or across the mountains of Switzerland. Sometimes, I actually record these songs after I wake up, as I did here:

For all the good he’s done in the world, Chomsky is a man of incredibly poor judgment and low moral standards — at least in his personal life. Unbelievably disappointing!

with Krauss after an avalanche of allegations surfaced, he fostered a friendship with Epstein after Epstein plead guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor, and he willingly went to dinner with Woody Allen despite clear evidence, in my view, that Allen is a predator.

There is a clear pattern of bad behavior here: Chomsky doesn’t care about accusations of sexual misconduct against powerful men who he considers friends. He apparently doesn’t care about the victims, and doesn’t put much weight on their reports of abuse. He chose to ...

This is the guy who Chomsky continued to support through 2019 (and, to my knowledge, up to the present). Little did I know at the time, though, that Chomsky himself was buddies with Epstein!

Hence, I write:

Here's what Krauss said about Epstein. Wild stuff!

This is ridiculous. I noted in my response that Chomsky's excuse (last sentence) reminds me of Krauss’ excuse for staying friends with Epstein after the latter pled guilty to soliciting prostitution from a minor in 2008, for which Epstein received a shockingly lenient sentence.

Why then did Chomsky choose to appear on Krauss’ podcast? Why did Chomsky continue his friendship with Krauss, knowing that Krauss had hurt and traumatized so many women? I asked Chomsky over email, noting Krauss harassed a friend of mine, and this is what he said (paraphrasing):

Some examples:

The Krauss Debacle: More Allegations Surface Last February, Buzzfeed reported on “many wide-ranging allegations of [Lawrence] Krauss’s inappropriate behavior [toward women] over the…

After this was published, women flooded social media with additional accusations. It seemed like everyone in cosmology and the New Atheist movement had some bad experience with Krauss. I catalogued many of these in a Medium article:
xriskology.medium.com/here-are-wha...

It adds:

The article reports an incident between Krauss and the former executive director of the Center for Inquiry (DC branch), Melody Hensley:

Celebrity Atheist Lawrence Krauss Accused Of Sexual Misconduct For Over A Decade Lawrence Krauss is a famous atheist and liberal crusader — and, in certain whisper networks, a well-known problem. With women coming forward alleging sexual harassment, will his “skeptic” fanbase beli...

In 2019, Chomsky appeared on Lawrence Krauss’ podcast. The prior year, Buzzfeed News published an article titled: “He Became A Celebrity For Putting Science Before God. Now Lawrence Krauss Faces Allegations Of Sexual Misconduct.”

But Epstein and Allen aren't the only folks of questionable moral fiber that Chomsky befriended and supported. There's also Lawrence Krauss. Here's a bit on their friendship:

When pressed about whether he regrets associating with the notorious child sex trafficker, Chomsky wrote: “I’ve met [all] sorts of people, including major war criminals. I don’t regret having met any of them.”

WTF.

He added: “What was known about Jeffrey Epstein was that he had been convicted of a crime and had served his sentence. According to U.S. laws and norms, that yields a clean slate.” Similarly, there's this (from my article):

When the Wall Street Journal asked Chomsky in 2023 about his friendship with Epstein, Chomsky said: “First response is that it is none of your business. Or anyone’s. Second is that I knew him and we met occasionally.”

YouTube video by HasanAbi NOAM CHOMSKY HUNG OUT WITH EPSTEIN???

As discussed in Hasan Piker's video below (around 3:00), a photograph surfaced in 2022 of Chomsky with Epstein’s butler in Paris, which was apparently taken close to Epstein’s apartment in Paris. Why was Chomsky hanging out with Epstein’s butler?

Newsweek further reports:

"Another scheduled event involved former Israeli Prime Minister Barak, which Chomsky said was for the purpose of discussing 'Israel’s policies with regard to Palestinian issues and the international arena.'"

On yet another occasion, in 2018, Epstein wrote to someone that Chomsky had arranged a meeting between the two and former Brazilian President Lula, who was serving a prison sentence at the time. “Chomsky called me with Lula . From prison . What a world,” his email read.

Is this a reference to Epstein's private island? I don't know.

The following year, Epstein wrote to Chomsky and his Brazilian wife: “Caribbean is close to Brazil. If you wanted, you are always welcome, and Valeria can meet you there.” Chomsky wrote back: “Still eager to make it to the Caribbean, but it looks as though we’ll have to wait.”

Emails reveal Epstein's network of the rich and powerful despite sex offender status The documents, spanning at least a decade, show Epstein's interactions with business executives, reporters, academics, and political players.

PBS reports that, in August 2015, “Epstein told Chomsky … to only fly to Greece if he feels well.” In the same exchange, Epstein wrote: “You are of course welcome to use [my] apt in new york with your new leisure time, or visit new Mexico again.”

As this person noted:

When asked about his night out with Epstein and Allen, Chomsky said: “If there was a flight, which I doubt, it would have been from Boston to New York, 30 minutes … I’m unaware of the principle that requires that I inform you about an evening spent with a great artist.”
