Carter is a mistake theorist, Quinn is a conflict theorist. At no point does Quinn ever talk about truth, or about anything, really. His words are weapons to achieve an end by whatever means possible. There is no more meaning in them than in a fist. Carter’s meta-mistake is to believe that he is arguing with someone. Quinn is not arguing; he is in a fist fight.
