I have recently been temporarily banned, censored, and/or deleted from Noam Chomsky’s Z-magazine blog. I think. I don’t know which straw broke the camel’s back, so to speak, but I can’t help but feel a bit of pride over the matter. Below is what was written about me. I’m not sure what it all means, but the action of banning me along with their words reenforces the belief that the extreme left is more interested in power than anything else.
I have extended “YB” an interim reinstatement for as long as he continues to play Washington Generals to our Harlem Globetrotters.
Finally a note that helps explain the confusion regarding “YB’” comments:”Yakov Bok” has been identified as a reactionary ideological hooligan and a capitalism-worshipping Thought Criminal. In light of his demonstrated harmlessness and in return for his agreement to undergo an extensive program of rigorous ideological re-education in accordance with the scientific principles of “Juche” (which subsumed and transcended Marxism-Lenninism in the North Korean Constitution in 1977), however, “Yakov Bok’s” commenting privileges have been provisionally restored.
Sincerely,Kim Jong Il & Paul Street
