    I want a second source. I only see it posted by Max Blumenthal and no other website. His Wikipedia page hasn’t even been updated.

        It doesn’t’ seem right. Imagine you’re an impactful scholar and then your death is announced by a tweet, not even a full obituary. I want to see a full obituary.

          It doesn’t’ seem right.

          He’s 92 years old and was in pretty bad shape last video i saw of him. It definitely seems right in this case. It’s not like he’s 50.

          The wiki is updated.

          As far as I know Blumenthal and Parenti’s son are friends, so it’s possible Blumenthal was one of the first to hear about it and got the OK from the son to go public with it. Speculation of course, but something along those lines seems much more plausible than Blumenthal lying about it for some reason.
