Reveal to us, Chomsky's Chum, what "irony" do you see? Obviously you
do not see your hypocrisy in making an unsupported statement while
always complaining about others making unsupported statements.

Sorry. I thought the irony was obvious, given that we're on the
Carousel of Faux Philosophy, and I wished to spare you the added
embarrassment of spelling it out. But since you insist...
You expect Maxwell to back up his statements about what a philosopher
says by providing quotes form the philosopher's work, yet you refuse
to do the same. That's how you got on this ride in the first place,
remember?
