對喬姆斯基這類人士的功能，我現在比較感受参半。

Mixed feelings: He is certainly a good man, inspiring me too, and he is necessary for especially young people in the process of acquiring a fairer picture of reality. But he has no effects in directing the evolution of reality as individuals like himself used to, at least to some extent. Therefore from the global point of view, his influence can be delusional for many people in continually believing the privilege of the west - just as many here have been claiming the superiority of the west because it allows Chomsky.
