Hi Worstgen,

So let's talk about something we all know deep down in our hearts and souls.
- Members of Worstgen are too inept at arguing to actually argue well.
- Arguing well involves not committing logical fallacies and providing reasoning to an argument.

The average person commits fallacies all the time, and this phenomena has contributed to excessive arguing among people without the tools to argue well.

For example, it is good to know what a non sequitur is. A non sequitur is a type of logical fallacy that means, "Does not follow." For example, observe the following sentences:

Why do I have to do math? I don't plan to be a math teacher.

Note: His lack of interest in being a math teacher has nothing to do with learning basic math.

There is also the Straw Man argument:

Want to go to the movies?
No.
You never want to have fun.

Note: person A has twisted person B's argument to include that he didn't want to have fun because he never wants to have fun. He just didn't want to go to the movies.

Then the ad-hominem:

Why do I care what his opinion is? He's a horse!

Note: Just because he's a horse 🐎 doesn't mean his opinion is any less valid than anyone else's opinion.

There are just a few examples of fallacious arguments to help guide you toward more productive areas of discussion. Thank you for reading.

Hello there,

I would like to invite you to argue about a few lines of your statement with me.

Because, your statement seems to be mostly a generalization of every user of this forum. Starting from your first sentence, you are putting every one of us together into one box you labeled.

There are so many types of fallacies.

Can you please explain them all using powerscaling terms?

You guys aren't fit to argue. I have proposed members here are especially prone to being bad at arguments. You could learn a thing or two.

You're mainly hotheads who really can't argue. I don't care if you think I'm labelling you. It's an accurate judgement - not a debate. There is nothing to debate about it. It is true.

FAULTY ANALOGY:

If two negatives make a positive, then two wrongs should make a right.

Note: The comparison isn't sound.

Wait a sec… didn’t you, yourself create a fallacy stating that worstgen members (all) don’t know how to argue?

Nope.

Immature people who likely have ADHD just see this as an opportunity to try to prove they can do logic when they really can't.

It's pretty well a fact most of these people aren't educated. It's a logical deduction they can't argue.

I've learned that people here don't like people who take clear authority over specific subjects. You could be an expert that people here would still be laughing at your argumentation. You will need to be more subtle.

Well, good luck anyway. You'll need some here.
