The fun part of about debating is cutting down what people say and correcting it or going by your view.It is a known fact however that most Dem will pick a debate and then say something about that person.
Weather it will be about race beliefs or whatever.So instead of debating on what that person say they will say things as "Well you just say that because you are from a rich family or so on"It is pretty pitiful if you ask me.
What can you do?jm

Funny, you ridicule Democrats (I assume you really mean "liberals"😉 for improper debate behavior, yet you're the one pointing the fingers.

I guess I shouldn't really broadcast that though huh?
Originally posted by CreshoskThat is literally true, as a saying pretty worthless though.

Nah, it's alright, you just have a freaky hand.

Funny, that's the guy I was thinking about too.
Originally posted by CreshoskI don't disregard points. But yes, it is better to call someone an idiot and give a reason for it (at least the first few times) than using logical fallacies incorrectly to dodge valid points.
Yeah, it's much better to just call someone an idiot to disregard a point. That's a much more logical and well thought out thing to do.

Not really. I expect you to say stupid things like you do. So no it's not ironic for you to say stupid things like that.
You are not the most intelligent fellow around, are you?
It is ironic that you accuse me of dodging points as well as being an advocate of stating logical fallacies at all times (regardless of applicability) and yet answer a post with something like "
Rather ironic, don't you think?".
Yet, I probably commit the logical fallacy of "pointing out Creshosk's bullshit" now, so, forget what I said.

What an incredible error to make.
Of course I didn't mean you answer with "Rather ironic, don't you think?" but "Whatever helps you sleep at night."
Be that as it may, of course my answer would in such circumstances be similarly ironic, but since they don't apply to me it doesn't really matter.
Anyways, disregard my earlier post (except for a few good laughs at irony at its best) and just read it as this:

Originally posted by Bardock42Don't confuse my being obstinate with being unintelligent. since you didn't pick up on it, my last response was little more than an elementary school retort of "I know you are but what am I."

I had respect for you at one point in time, but you blew it.
Originally posted by Bardock42Please, I'm not so stupid as to not recognize a thread devoted to "secretly" bashing me. So this isn't a debate.

Not to sound arrogant, but its obvious that you can't handle what I say or do since you have to resort to these childish tactics.

*Laughgasm*
Typically in a debate the fun part for me, if it is one where winning is an option and a desired outcome, then it isn't about cutting down what the other side says and "correcting it" but simply to present a better argument, better evidenced, better supported.
When I did debating in school it was clear that the way to suceed was not to "attack" the person, their method or how they said something, but what was being said. I heard plenty of logical fallacies but the point was you knew what they were getting at. It didn't serve anything to get up there and waste ones time going "logical fallacy, debating fallacy" because then you wouldn't be countering their argument, just how it was presented.
Much better to present some actual rebuttal then just nit picking the othersides technique.
Originally posted by ADarksideJediThe way that I was taught in school to debate (which I don’t do all the time) is that one person purposes the question or topic and they post why or how and the other only comments on what the first person as said and after they answer or comment on their questions and then they ask their own and then back and forth. The purpose of a debate is not to “win” the debate per say but to express your points in a logical manner.

I normally don’t try and tear apart or attack the question, key word is normally unless I find the claim to be way off base or completely unfounded.
