Re: Name that fallacy...
There is a fallacy rampant about these parts, but for which I know no name... The bare bones of the fallacy are the simple shouts: "nobody understands me"; " all I see is strawmen"; "everybody ad homs me" ...or ... "in the DAyS whEn THIS wrITTen so caLLED "AD...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
Maybe you should also refrain from suspecting things, it would be best for everyone :) What would be best for everyone is for you stop wasting forum space with your drivel. I'm not the one wasting forum space with a long lecture about how the NTS is a formal fallacy, which however only proves your ...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
Could Searle's Chinese Room qualify as a NTS fallacy? 1. No computer(program) understands language. 2. ChatGPT understands language. 3. No computer (program) truly understands language. What does Searle mean by "understand"? Does the man in the room not understand the language the instruct...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
In all your comments, including this one, why do you think we're mocking you? :) I don't know, but I suspect that because you haven't been able to falsify anything I've said, and would rather be a troll (given your own definition), that you are jealous and have nothing better to do than to be a tro...

Re: Name that fallacy...
Have you read any of Age's posts? What on Earth makes you think he's accurately calling out fallacies? Age is one of the people who's post I don't read because I have already interacted with them and found them to be lacking in critical thinking skills as well as being intellectually dishonest. I w...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
What is a Jew? Seems like there are two possible definitions, neither of which contradicts the other: 1: a person belonging to a continuation through descent or conversion of the ancient Jewish people 2: one whose religion is Judaism A Jew is the offspring of a Jewish mother. You definition is just...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
Because you're looking for some rational structure in the NTS but it doesn't have one. And where did I say or imply such a thing. You can't even quote me on what it is you are disagreeing with me about. What I have shown is that there isn't even a rational structure in the first premise made that m...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
David Friedman, the conservative former US ambassador to Israel during Donald Trump’s presidency, went further, tweeting before Monday’s protest: “ Any American Jew attending this rally is not a Jew – yes I said it!” I think Mr. Freidman's position probably falls into the NTS. He already called the...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
All very nice but the NTS is still just an intentional dick move, not a formal fallacy. :) You already "lost" in this topic before my first comment. Where did I ever say it was a formal fallacy? You're not really reading my posts, only Flash's misinterpretation of my posts. Because you're...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
However there is a real pattern that it is focusing on. Advocate has been acting from the beginning as if the NTS meant that if you exclude someone from a category, then you are wrong. And Traffic Logic was assuming that in real disagreements where there is a clear and standing disagreement over in...

Re: the "no true Scotsman" problem solved
Glanced over maybe half of it and skipped the rest. This has got to be some of the most inept trolling I've ever seen. Keep it short geez. If keeping it short is being a troll, then look in the mirror. Besides, my posts aren't for you since I already know you aren't reading them. They are for the r...
