I thought Thunderf00t did text comments very sparingly after he became a regular content provider. He's debating FringeElements et al here:

I just commented to TF.
I wonder why he never responds to Shane's videos though.

Might be a thing to ask him.

"Also, is there a reason why you haven't responded to any of shanedk's videos?

He's made at least three directed to your points.

Here's the one regarding the financial crisis:  /watch?v=K3xMypfblOI "Um, no. Re: How to lose a TRILLION Dollars"

Here's one regarding your points about slavery:
/watch?v=fYWxflErVWk "RE: Deep Thoughts From an Intellectual Lightweight (Part 1)"

Here's another regarding the free market and slavery: /watch?v=yAa6dYBwy7M
"What is the Free Market?""
My reply to him on this.

My reply to his points about loving the state or leaving it.

"Hey, thunderf00t, isn't love it or leave it a conservative republican mantra? :P

Speaking of love it or leave it, here are some refutations to that argument:
/watch?v=K2MxiQR4CIQ "Love It or Leave It" by fearsedge

and the first half of this video:
/watch?v=a7qF0t_2xms "Constitution Lectures 1: The Non-Consent of the Governed (HD version)" by shanedk"

Damn.
I'm about this close || to calling Poe's Law on Thunderf00t.
I knew he was ignorant about this stuff, but damn.

Here is my comment followed by a reply from thunderf00t followed by another reply by me:

Me:  "'The existence of the state is one of the best ways to reduce violence ever invented" --TF
ROFL!!!!!
Wow...I knew TF was ignorant about economics but I had no idea he was THAT messed up."

Thunderf00t:  "@Surhotchaperchlorome
actually the quote is from 'the blank slate', a Pulitzer Prize finalist by a Harvard atheist.

lol @ conferderalsocialist, I though you were banned for TOS violations.

Sigh, 2 video replies to a few text comments.

However after the 1 minute all you have done is miss the sarcasm evident in the first comment of mine you read. Indeed its even spelled out on the next line and you STILL 'somehow' miss it... facepalms....

-Obvious troll is obvious."

Me:  "@Thunderf00t:  Irrelevant. Am I supposed to believe that based solely on the person saying it without anything else?
If so, argument from authority.
Try again, Thunderf00t."

This almost sounds like a creationist trying to convince you that Evolution is false because a scientist who got the nobel prize believes in god.
Or a moonhoaxer who cites a Fox Network special.

Exactly, it doesn't matter how many colourful titles you have, you STILL have to show your homework.  Everybody does, no exceptions.
I recently heard that the word heretic is derived from the greek work heriticos which means "able to choose"
The more you know...

As DeistPaladin said, "Except that [appealing to an expert] is STILL an appeal to authority.  Even experts have to present evidence to support their claims."

I'll put this in Fav quotes.

Jeez. He replied to your comments, but not mine? I can never get him to respond to my remarks.

Ouch. :(
Well, I linked him to the videos Shane made on the subjects.  I hope he has enough decency to at least watch them.
