[MD] Consciousness a la Platt

[ARLO J BENSINGER JR]

[SA]
You keep saying Arlo is NOT answering your questions, but he has.  Your turning
to turn the tables on him.

[Arlo]
Its an old talk-radio trick, SA. Its dishonest rhetoric to the core. But its
all Platt has to go on, since he is incapable of answering my questions. It's
the 3D Principle (Deceive, Distort, Deflect), and that is Platt's 'mo.

[SA]
Are we really going to waste our time, Platt, beating this dead horse?

[Arlo]
You can bet this is precisely what Platt wants. Each post that is about Platt's
not posting is one he doesn't have to face the questions he in incapable of
answering.

[SA]
And again, where is the personal accusation?  Don't see it.

[Arlo]
Platt always tries to pretend he is the victim of "ad hominem" attacks, or
tries to accuse others of engaging in them, again to derail the dialogue away
from his inability to answer. The irony is this man uses them more than any
other contributor. But this is just part of the "Deceive" aspect of the 3D
Principle he relies on.
