The point is that in order to spread your message you need as big of a loudspeaker as possible - especially since how the MSM minimise exposure to voices they don't like these days. People care about Chomsky's opinion because they already know about Chomsky. Without Twitter, people would still be making **** up about Peterson just to shut him up.His fame predates email and the internet itself. What's your point?
Public intellectuals should get off twitter and so should everyone else. It's a cesspool.
And I disagree. All intellectuals of every kind should be on Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, etc. Get your ideas out there so we can determine whether it's garbage or useful.
