There's being different for Ironic Amusement value, Mesostim, and then there's being a twit.
I think what made me so angry about his 'conversation' with TPT was the fact that he was clearly trying to winkle out her areas of low self esteem, and make her feel more vulnerable, in a 'caring, good guy' kind of way. This was what he was also trying to do with Nell, but didn't manage.
On the surface of it, the Uri's of the world are harmless, and not everybody has to believe the same thing, wouldn't it be boring, etc. But what we saw there was the trick of a conman - reduce the self confidence of someone who already has self esteem problems, only later to come back and 'save' them, making them dependent on him. In real life, the people who are dependent on the conman then pay him lots of money - have you seen Uri's website? - in this game he's hoping to swing everyone around to his side. To me, his tactics are completely unethical and could possibly even be psychologically damaging in the long run.
Yes, it's a game, and they've taken the shilling, and so are up for criticism from us. But there is a line, and that line is where personal and psychological damage can happen. One of those moments occured when Kate and Jonny were drinking that punch; another occured when Uri was tearing Tara's psyche to shreds in public.
I bet you top dollar tonight, that we'll see him try to 'council' her before this maggot shower things, worming the tendrils even deeper into her psyche.
When it happens in the real world marriages are broken up and people are sent bankrupt by the money they give these conment. In no way is it 'amusing'.
