Of course I read the article, Der. If you're not familiar with much or most of academic writing, this tortured and tautological piece is a prime example. Nothing to do with not lauding educational standards (which we all endorse) or not celebrating Chomsky's birthday, it's the manner of saying something in pretentious, fake-intellectual prose at twice its length when it could be expressed simply and directly. And we're not allowed to criticise academics because Chomsky is one? What a quaintly perverse sense of logic.
