That is so funny I am going to take a few seconds and laugh. Geeetchiee
geetchee. Haw Haw Hee. Jim is supposed to be a philosopher.
Fumento does not bust myths at all. He Creates Them. He says smoking is
non-addictive, and that USEPA are big fat liers. He sides with the tobacco
companies and says every that is contrary to science and common sense.
He is just a clown and contrarian. He serves a purpose in society by
relaxing some persons feeling of quilt. He supports smoking in public
places, etc.
Everything that is potentially bad in the world is not only potentially
good, but is really good. Fumento is simply anti-government (except when it
is GMOs) and sides with those people that have money to spend.
There is no such thing as Socractic cultural criticism in Fumento because he
only preaches one 'profitable' side of the story. And Socrates participated
in dialogues, not monologues.
