    I’ve heard Chomsky utterly excoriate both Democrats and Republicans (and rightly so, IMHO), especially on matters of foreign policy, however, even he does not take the maximalist position like this.

      Chomsky is a tame and controlled contrarian. I can’t think of a single group on the left that he hasn’t pissed off, even his own cult of anarchism disown him. Recently he’s been found to be inveigled with Epstein. He’s what liberals imagine someone on the left looks like.
