Yes, many experts have poked holes into Chris Langan's CTMU philosophy - generally it is regarded as incoherent or jumbled. However, he is generally recognized as having a genius IQ, as even Malcolm Gladwell acknowledged in one of his best-sellersselling books. I don't dispute the problematic nature of Langan's philosophy. I think, as a public figure, he will open himself up to attacks, but he has achieved more - again winning a game show and getting millions of views over his eccentric personality and philosophy - than the vast majority of his critics. To me, he's the perfect example of a public figure drawing anonymous or pseudonymous legions of people who bash him. He symbolizes the problem with the internet in attracting masses of anonymous people who unleash attacks on public figures. Notwithstanding this attention-seeking OP, I regard this as an internet problem.
