I'm sure Mr. Morris can speak for himself, Doug, but seems to me one's 
admitting that he/she disagrees with someones view (e.g. Chomsky's moronic 
posturings) doesn't make he/she an ogre who wishes to quell all dissent or 
challenging authority. You are falling into that Us vs. Them view, which for 
someone who purports to have Pynchon, shame on you.
