Haha if there's any two in PPR who seem similar in personality it's you and jrjones.


Nice!
Tu quoque - when critized you turn critizim back the other person to avoid addressing the concern. :lol:


This is what I've been talking about. You saying that you think I am real, is not criticism. Therefore I was not responding to criticism.

Therefore you once again misapplied a logical fallacy term and it was non sequitur - as usual.

I seems that you just read these off the yourlogicalfallacyis website and guess (usually incorrectly) which one applies.


I was critising a group of people of which you are a member and it is entirely possible that you have a sock puppet and are feeling defensive.

So your claim that I dont know what I am doing displays the limitation of how you view the interaction.

We are basically debating the same thing in each of our conversations: the nature of reality.

You are arguing for the side represented by trump. The side that says I believe this and reality should conform to my belief. I dont think you really believe that, but that is where youhave placed yourself. It is part of the reason you get so frustated when I drop a reality bomb on you.

I argue on the side that says reality is this and I should conform my beliefs to that.

Now, what fallicies will you use in response. :lol:


The problem for you is that your "bombs" are non sequitur duds. Which is hardly something for me to become frustrated over. Such immature ham-handed conduct only garners apathetic reproach. Your fallacy is posturing.

When a person is actually smart, they are told so by others. When a person is posturing, they essentially point out how smart they think they are on a regular basis.

Just reading a list of logical fallacies didn't do much good for me. I had to work to dig them out of assertions I had made in order to really understand them. They are so tempting, and so hollow when you bite into one.

Persisting in using them once they've been thoroughly illuminated does take guts, though. Churning guts, eventually.

I assume by this, you are claiming that i am constantly claiming I am intelligent?

Can you provided examples of where I have claimed this?

No claim. Just a statement. How you want to interpret it is up to you.

And I agree, your silly routine got old a long time ago.

I guess it's better than asking if they have stopped...

Quote:
The students were at the capitol in Oklahoma City for an annual Muslim Day event organized by CAIR to introduce members of the community to their state lawmakers and encourage democratic engagement, Soltani said by phone on Saturday.

Bennett confirmed to the Tulsa World newspaper in an email that three Muslim students visiting his office on Thursday as part of Muslim Day activities at the state capitol were handed tracts that, among other things, asked "Do you beat your wife?"

The lawmaker said that Islamic law and the Koran permit Muslims to beat their wives, though "this certainly does not mean that all Muslim men beat their wives," he wrote in the email, according to the newspaper.

Bennett and the state Republican party did not respond to repeated requests for comment.

The students who visited the office of the former U.S. Marine were told he was away and they never did talk to the lawmaker, Soltani said.

No claim. Just a statement. How you want to interpret it is up to you.

And I agree, your silly routine got old a long time ago.


claim
klām/
verb
1.
state or assert that something is the case, typically without providing evidence or proof.
"he claimed that he came from a wealthy, educated family"

state·ment
ˈstātmənt/
noun
a definite or clear expression of something in speech or writing.
"do you agree with this statement?"
synonyms: declaration, expression of views/facts, affirmation, assertion, announcement, utterance, communication, proclamation, presentation, expounding


If you write something stupid or you cant keep up in a logic based discussion, dont get mad at me.

I have tried having a logical discussion with almost all of the asorted trolls, goblins and such.

Once it becomes clear you are not willing to stick to reality and logical relationships, my goal becomes disproving the logic and evidence.

And when you and others get upset, it is pretty funny, all of you preciscous little snowflakes with you alternative facts.

I am glad you agree with me, not sure what the other part of that sentence is refer
ng to.

Now here's the deal. You constantly display the attitude that everyone else is stupid, which comes out as you telling everyone how smart you are and patting yourself on the back, which is just simply boorish and kinda sad. But the problem is you don't actually display being as smart as you seem to think you are compared to others regarding content. You seem to rely upon your understanding of rhetoric based on structure rather than content. As in fixated on how something is said, rather than what is being said and then harp, carp and heckle over such particulars based on a clumsy understanding of them. And I find it ironic that you are such a sticker for structuring along those lines, but display poor diction, grammar and spelling. Basically you just come off as an antagonistic phony. Pure posturing. I say these things in the spirit of futile constructive criticism, rather than as an attack.

Oh Ezra, you still dont get it. This will be a blow to your ego, but I dont care what you think.

I am not trying to convince you and all the other precsious little snowflakes of anything, you have proven yourselves immune to both logic and reality.

My goal is to make sure everyone else knows how illogical and divorced from reality your arguments and statements/claims actually are.

Seriously, these walls of nested snark turn everyone off on having a discussion. If you want a discussion here, please trim quotes.

Impervious is too strong a word. You have to find something which you can both directly observe. Impervious may not be too strong a word in all cases, failing that.

Previous defensive replies from you indicate that you do care.

It's more like you're trying to convince yourself that you're a special snowflake set apart from all others as exemplified by continual posturing.

But all you're showing everyone is just a lot of posturing.

No one was under the illusion that you want a real discussion. It would only take reading a few of your deliberately uninformed comments to figure that out.
