See, that's where I disagree. Take our friend Macho here. I consider him one of our more "limited" members.
He wants us to watch the interview, yet when I point out a glaring inconsistency of the person being interviewed he simply ignores it. That's not an intellectual problem, it's a phycological one. He refuses to even consider being wrong, so he ignores any argument that might challenge it's worldview. In other words, he chooses to do that.
But Sue....I thought you loved that picture? I thought it never got old for you to look at him with his feet up on that desk.
Do you think he'll get old. In prison, where he belongs?
Do you think he's happy to trade half a decade of his life for that photo you just can't get enough of?
I'm guessing....no. Not so much.
That's what ideology -- and a cult, specifically -- does to people. It robs them of their fundamental human curiosity, because all answers are provided by the ideology/cult.I think curiosity and intelligence play a significant role in this. MAGA tends to draw those that lack curiosity and aren't particularly bright like a load stone does iron filings.
As if you're THE arbiter of "Truth".It's that way for EVERY right winger... period.
That's the point I'm trying to make. If defending Trump almost by definition involves using fallacies. I'm suggesting that the only way to defend Trump IS using fallacies.

It's a goddamn shame.
You love an America where this guy gets half a decade for putting his feet on the desk of a woman who defrauded America and made herself rich using the most crooked means imaginable.
YOU do this. YOU. Because there's no boots of power you won't lick.
No, I'm not. I do however know when fallacies are used when defending a position.As if you're THE arbiter of "Truth".
That guys a complete dipshit. But you can't really hold against him. He doesn't know any better. Its like getting mad a puppy for shitting on the floor.

You kinda skipped the whole breaking into the Speaker's office, stealing from her, felony civil disorder and disrupting an official proceeding part, dincha? Threatening a police officer with electode spikes in his cane. Or his attempt to prevent the peaceful transition of power.
But hey, you got that photo you love so much. So all's well that ends well!
You mean I'm siding with the actual election results? Shocking, right?
You're siding with seditionists and men who beat police officers to try and overturn a lawful election and retain power for the guy that lost.
All because a game show host told you to. How's that working out for you and Dicky B?

The buffalo guy was ESCORTED into, and then OUT OF the fucking SENATE CHAMBER by the Capitol Police.You kinda skipped the whole breaking into the Speaker's office, stealing from her, felony civil disorder and disrupting an official proceeding part, dincha?

Is that what your ilk were saying while they beating those cops? Or when they were forging those fraudulent election documents? Maybe when your ilk were threatening election workers? Or when they were trying to overturn a lawful election.Just to be clear:
When we say the Pledge now, "...UNITED states, ONE nation, INDIVISIBLE..."
The fucking Capitol Police ESCORTED the buffalo guy to the SENATE CHAMBER!!!No, I'm not. I do however know when fallacies are used when defending a position.
While using fallacies by itself does not invalidate an argument, using fallacies every time you argue does show an inherent reliance on fallacies too argue.
And if you're reliant on fallacies to defend a position every time, the position itself can at a certain point be deemed weak.
I always use Maddow and Michael Moore as an example by stating I will never trust them as a source.That's what ideology -- and a cult, specifically -- does to people. It robs them of their fundamental human curiosity, because all answers are provided by the ideology/cult.

Nope. There's no such requirement in law or in the commonly used definition of the word.
You imagined it.
Its ludicrous that MAGA dipshits would try and prevent the peaceful transition of power and violently try to overturn the election results.
Yet, that's exactly what we saw. With the MAGAts insisting that they were storming the capitol and it was a revolution.

Dicky B is not the brightest bulb on the tree. What kind of a dipshit commits those kinds of crimes, and then takes pictures and shares them on social media?
Stupid hurts. And frankly, should.
Agreed, exactly.I always use Maddow and Michael Moore as an example by stating I will never trust them as a source.
Michael Moore because his style is naked appeal to emotion most of the time.
Maddow because once while being sued for defamation her lawyers argued she wasn't to be considered a reporter but rather an opinion maker. This showed me a. Her lawyers didn't think they could be the defamation suit on merit. And b. she doesn't hold herself to any journalistic standard. At that point I don't trust you.
That's the problem with most on the right. Not only aren't they willing to question themselves. They specifically look for those who confirm their biases.
Who's talking about requirements? The word insurrection was sloppily applied to this situation at best.
I've already destroyed the rediculous notion that J6 would be capable of overthrowing anything.
Nope. Only those that attacked the capitol while they were actively counting the votes as the last stage of the election.Nah.... Just doesn't hold water....if That was the case in the word insurrection could be sloppily applied to almost any demonstration or protest like it is in third world countries and marxists regimes.
The man whose imprisonment YOU are cheering put his feet on the Queen's desk.
The actual election results don't bother me in the slightest.The crooked, thieving queen whose heels you would love to lick, let's face it. And it doesn't even bother you in the slightest that this is what we have come to. No part of your American heart is like gee, maybe we shouldn't punish our political enemies like this. Nope, you're all on board, to the point where it delights you.
Understand this. Some of us don't take pleasure in injustice, even for our enemies.
I know you don't get it. Have the day you deserve.
