Krim, Arlo, Marsha, Ron, Platt ... This is a very old argument ... is Platt a fool, and if not, what ?
Marsha's words, she "doesn't care for" .... his politics, his ethics, his morals, his values ... they seem "wrong" to a MoQist. She's clearly not alone. But I concluded a long time ago Platt was no fool, he has several (good old fashioned word) "saving graces". None of which save him from being (good old fashioned word) "evil", maybe ? Even earlier, I suggested that if he were not evil, Platt Holden might be "The Old Plant" feigning evil for the sake of .... something ... ? I even went further with that suggestion ... but my timing was very bad I seem to recall ;-) As I pointed out before, those are MoQ-rational suggestions, not ad-hominems since the subject is the subject of the debate, but a fat lot of good it did me then. However it's such an old argument around a single individual, that I have since adopted the "life's too short" argument, and focus attention in more productive pastures.
