[MD] Re MoQ and SOM differences

[david buchanan]

David M said to DMB:
...but my point is that I think the overcoming of Platonism and dualism is also underway in other spheres of contemporary thought: ...I get the impression that if someone tries to add something to the debate that you know very little about and have never read you feel like someone is lessening your glorious dispensing of illumination. Chill out Dave, ...

dmb says:
Okay, Dave. I'm listening. Go ahead and explain to me what your favorite continental philosophers are saying and how that is relevant to the MOQ. It's not enough to simply drop names and assert that they are relevant. You gotta bring it. You gotta make a case. I honestly do not recall any such thing from you and in my own investigations they look a lot like Rorty. If it weren't for the fact that most of them are essentially Marxists, I'd say they were exactly like Rorty. And Rorty dismisses radical empiricism, which contemporary classical pragmatists take to be essential.

And I'm sorry for being such a jerk about it. Guess I'm still sore about the confusion and the wild goose chases that have resulted from your naked assertions.
