I feel it is just fear of the ideas themselves.
No, it is not. You scare me about as much as a dust bunny.
Yes, you say stuff all the time. Mostly, you are not ignored, you get a reaction. Often, you get just that---a reaction, not a response. That's because Barber is right, you put out soundbites and aphorisms and inuendo but once you do get a response, you move on to the next thing. The only time I ever saw you sustain a conversation, if we can call it that, is over that copyright issue, but even there you almost never (I don't want to say "never" because I didn't see ALL the back and forth) responded to counterargument. You were asked direct questions then and ignored them. If you feel you're ignored, look again---you get lots of attention. You don't ignore us, just what we say in reaction to your little gems.
As to your ideas---what ideas? You put forth Chomsky's et al but I'm not really sure I've seen one of
your ideas.
