re: #55 CuriousLurker

I have read Shahak’s notorious book (which was, interestingly enough, endorsed/blurbed by Chomsky, Hitchens and Vidal; unsurprisingly, it was also liked by David Duke) and it was full of stupid generalizations and inaccuracies. Not everything he says is untrue, but you would have to know enough about the topic in the first place to separate the wheat from the chaff, so as a source it’s pretty useless.
