Chomsky has never been a part of the "tolerance brigade," his left-libertarian syndicalist views notwithstanding. In fact, he has always been brutally critical of postmodernism.

If anything, that "civility is overrated" is exactly what you'd hear from the NON tolerance brigade (which I'm all in favor of).

Have you never heard of a "tone argument" before.
