His writings on politics (and I am pretty much in full sympathy) are equally
poorly written, if not quite as impenetrable.  It's also been pointed out
that his technical metaphors are relentlessly authoritarian: it's all about
commanding and binding and the like.

To get the flavor of Chomsky's technical prose, consult the one, the only,
