... Platt has been using quotes selectively for years. He's been ignoring the
passages about the moral superiority of socialism and the degenerate regression
back to Victorian values for just as many years. In fact, I'd say that
intellectual dishonesty is Platt's basic method of operation. I've posted the
quotes you refer to many, many times as a response to his right-wing
truth-twisting but it never makes any difference. So I gave up trying. But
Platt has never given up on lying.
Platt replied:
Of course, quoting Pirsig saying capitalism is superior to socialism is a
"waste of time," but quoting him saying he doesn't agree that SOM in the
intellectual level isn't. In the first instance it's "lying." In the second
it's holy writ. Makes you wonder who is being "dishonest.".
dmb says:
I don't wonder at all who's being dishonest. You use quotes selectively and
dishonestly in both cases. In both cases you ignore the quotes that don't
reflect your anti-intellectual, pro-capitalist right-wing agenda. This
selective reading is conspicuously self-serving and you've always done it that
way. As a result, your "interpretation" of the MOQ is a grotesque distortion.
It's hard to imagine what could be less helpful.
