James Corbett celebrates 15 Years of Avoidance - part 2

As promised, here is my latest Corbett-bashing video, "celebrating" the 15th anniversary of his website and Sam Harris-like emergence on the post-9/11-Iraq scene. This is tied to the twin problems of structuralism and JQ-denial discussed in my last videos on the radical left, but also gets into the other Corbett problems of sophistry, honesty and credibility. The first video is a warm-up on Corbett tactics and intentions (incl his establishing his right-wing street cred), the second gets into the heart of the matter (dishonest JQ-denial), and the third takes a look at all this using an older vid I'd never seen before yesterday.

In an attempt to raise this to a higher plane, what I am suggesting here is the need to really delve into any source of information before accepting anything as true, or at least as reasonably credible. Understanding who someone is and what their motivations are is part of that process, of course.
