That sucks, right? We should protest.
Edit: C'mon, doesn't anyone else think that's lame?

And as overly defensive as you are BT (reminds me of how I used to be at times), I don't hate you, if that makes you feel any better. 😇
Nah, I'm back online now.
First of all, LLLLLink called me callous. Which basically means emotionally hardened. I don't really come off that way, do I? 🙁
Secondly, BT, please do not throw around fallacies if:
A. You do not know what the fallacy you are stating is.
B. You do not know the difference between a fallacy being acceptable in certain cases or not.
First of all, simply stating it is a fallacy does not discredit my argument contrary to popular belief.
I have not used an ad hominem, learn what the hell an ad hominem is. Using an ad hominem would be me saying you are wrong because you are stupid or a fanboy. I have called you a fanboy, and maybe stupid, cannot remember, but that is just an insult, not an ad hominem. Learn your fallacies.
Appeal to majority/popularity? Only if I based my entire decision on what most think. I cite popular opinion on you, true, but then I bring up points to further discredit your argument. There is a difference, which should be obvious. And there is no such thing as a bandwagon fallacy, and I certainly did not join the bandwagon in my dislike of you, I disliked you far before most that have posted here, if anyone jumped on a bandwagon, they jumped on MINE. At least in regards to that.
So if you are going to throw terms like that around, know their fvcking meaning first.
I have a tendency to stroke my ego every now and again, everyone does. But I accept my faults and defects. I can admit when I am wrong. You cannot. That is the difference between you and I, you stroke your ego for the purpose of protecting it, so that you believe that you are this incredibly intelligent, and powerful debater when you are clearly not. I have pointed out the logical fallacies in one of your posts. There were about eleven from what I remember.
I do not participate in threads with you for extended periods of time because an intellect as grand as mine is wasted on you. I display no false modesty. I am far above the norm in intellectual capability. Is that ego stroking? Perhaps, I won't lie and say that I couldn't be overrating myself. But at least I as I said before can admit when I am wrong.

His dad is a weak-willed moron for forgiving his son? That is so Hitler-esque dude. Forgiving is virtuous.
You sound like a total Neo-Nazi NemeBro.
Not if they are a credible threat to the right to live of others.
Yes, his father is a weak-willed moron for forgiving his son for shooting and killing his wife because she was not letting him play Halo. He should have killed him himself.
Not really.

Dude, you're a monster. You'd kill your own son?
Originally posted by ArtificialGloryNo, it isn't.
TGE, that was still an ad hominem.
Simply insulting someone's character is not an ad hominem, because it is not directly related to an argument.
Using their character as the basis for discrediting their argument is an ad hominem.

This is a great explanation of an ad hominem.
Making an attack on somebody is only an ad hominem if it is actually used to discredit their argument.
I have never done that unless it was a joke(Cannot recall doing that, but can see myself doing it).

I think he's callous. He said he'd kill his own son.

You obviously don't understand the term of Neo Nazi and what that refers to.
Are you talking about a different kind of Nazism that I'm not familiar with?
