He claims he did nothing wrong. The fact that the philosophers he contacted asked him to remove their comments itself is evidence that they did not think what he did was right.
Since Avalos is too muddled-headed to grasp the salient distinction, I guess we'll have to explain it to him. Manata didn't ask them for advice on ethics, but logic. He didn't ask them to assess the ethical quality of Hector's argument, but the logical quality of Hector's argument.
The question at issue wasn't who is morally right, but whether Hector's argument for moral relativism logically sound. Was his formulation fallacious? That's the only question that Manata ran by the philosophers.
