how can I make an argument if we’re not arguing?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)
  1. The premise that I was making bad arguments.

  2. All the times you said something was invalid because of this or that logical fallacy.

Two is sufficient.

WE'RE not arguing because I'm not arguing. YOU however have made many arguments, just only over petty in the moment interactions without any larger subject or point you were trying to make.

At least how I tell it. Do you have a point?

Answer please.

Oh cool! A new premise you've introduced!

What mental gymnastics?

Answer please.

Is this the first time you've encountered a word with more than one definition? You don't have to answer that one.

An argument can be an interaction between two people. That's what we're not having because I'm not joining in one.

An argument can also be a premise with or without supporting evidence or explanation. You've done a few of those.

says the troll.

after six hours of trolling, you’re just getting madder and madder.

why keep doing this to yourself?

Well that time I did it to explain to you that it's not "mental gymnastics" it's just knowing two whole definitions of the word 'argument'.

Why do you project anger onto someone taking the time to explain themselves to you?

Answer please.

Can you do me a favor and post that picture you have of the circular reasoning fallacy?

Thanks sweaty
