Re: What Values does ET Represent? (none / 0)

Well, it was useful to have Terry come, challenge what we were saying, and debate him. Less useful was being told children's scare stories about socialists.

He obviously did what he came here for which was harass you and lecture us, and left.

But he's not the first nor the longest-lived libertarian or "conservative republican" we've had here, nor will he be the last.

I think he may have been little surprised at how little respect his truths were granted and how dismissive the responses where. Some people work best if they can get under other people's skins, and nobody really let him needle them. They just dismissed him and moved on. Having engaged with him significantly in the past I was interested to see how people would react here.

The trouble with advertising in MSM is you can't control who follows your links.

Well, he came in after we'd worked through most of the theory he was relying on pretty thoroughly so that spouting libertarian platitudes made him a figure of fun.
