> The entire purpose of life is to market.

The sun doesn't give off free energy to market itself to anyone, and even the the most succesful whore will end up dead. The main difference will be having been a whore.

So what this person is saying is that under something like the Nazis or Stalin, they would have cruised right along. That is what they are actually saying, and that's all they're saying. Saying "I don't have anything to hide" really translates to "I am so far away from any adult responsibility and intelligence that I don't even realize I should be hiding that.", and anyone over 20 still saying shit like that you can write clean off, as far as I'm concerned.

The question remains, did you miss out on getting to know an interesting person, or did you dodge a bullet here?

> lies, misinformation and misrepresentation have been a part of human communications since the dawn of time

Yeah, but they were never shrugged off. Even the worst charlatans insisted they speak the truth; they didn't just go "meh, maybe it's not true after all, what is truth anyway".
