so that everyone interprets it thier own way

I disagree. He's long winded to be clear. And like many "intellectuals" he loses people in his tangled tales. I can follow him. But I've found he wasn't getting anywhere, very far, or deep as some may think.

However, I will grant you that because he comes from his perspective, just as listeners have their viewpoints (socialists/communists or not), he doesn't cover all the angles, and of course the listeners certainly won't either - unless you're of the rare breed that can both, take in different ideas while not agreeing with them, AND can even sympathetically imagine things from others' perspectives. Then, of course, with greater perspectives we can judge for ourselves, triangulate, and have our own reality or "truths" - rather than being told what to think.
