call me out when i use fallacies. That's not how I desire to debate. Maybe you're talking about my appeals to authority. That's not a fallacy if the authority is widely recognized as one. For example, it's not a fallacy to note that a Harvard dean in a relevant dept supports the idea that tylenol has an effect on fetal neurodevelopment.
Joe you have become as much a troll as anything recently. If you want to be taken seriously you gotta cut that crap out.

This is not about one particular issue. It's about absolutes. Are there any? Does logic exist? Does truth exist? Is it important?
We all use logical fallacies in our arguments, some more than others. But would it be preferable to avoid them or not purposefully use them at all?
I think there are absolutes and that logic exists and is vital towards the search for truth which we all should want.

A common fallacy deployed here lately has been "everyone does it so it's ok for he/me to do it". I think this is a variation on #7 in the above link. Ad hominems, appeals to authority, straw men and non sequiturs are in abundance here as well, from both sides.. Would it make for better debate if we tried to avoid these? Or is that unrealistic or simply wrong?
Since you are the #1 purveyor of these "tricks" it surprised me that you started this thread but admitting it is a good first step.

yeah. it would be awful for the president to actually be a decent leader and try to fix what's going on. you know...like his job. to keep this level of divide really is what's best for him. he feeds into a certain group of his followers who completely eat it up because this nonsense team based politics. if i ever hear either side use the phrases: trolling, owning, fafo, etc, i know exactly the type of person i'm dealing with.
on top of that, whether or anyone wants to admit this...a ton of this is trumps doing.
You make one major mistake here, he doesn't troll to impress his followers he trolls to distract people like Roundy and Tibs so he can accomplish what he wants. I don't like it but I understand it.

Yeah, you haven’t been around enough to see the other side of the systemic racism coin. I agree that, at some point, AA has to go away. But to call it evil or what have you simply reflects a lack of real life experience. Misused, perhaps, but certainly not of ill intent.
What would make you think that Affirmative Action has been effective?

BREAKING: government Gestapo agency defends government Gestapo agency.Cant wait for Nuremberg II for these psychopaths
Truly think about how easily you are fooled with anything that could be considered Anti Trump. This was obviously a lie and you went with it.

At end of article:
CORRECTION (Sept. 23, 2025): An earlier version of this article mischaracterized the activities of ICE agents in the video. The article has been updated.

This is intentional provocation of the low intelligence people to attack ICE agents. If a reporter directly quoted the violent criminal while ignoring the government response you are a scumbag.

So let me get this straight: you’re apparently too lazy and incurious to do a basic keyword search in a prominent science journal, but I should somehow believe that you’ll take the time to carefully peruse the highly cited peer-reviewed research papers that I would have taken the time to arrange for you??
This was always a “gotcha!” situation, really, because anyone genuinely open-minded about this subject would have already done the individual inquiries to arrive at the same scientific determination that other learned people have already done.
I’ll reiterate and (drastically) simplify the science with new words: gender identity is a neurobiological construct. Transgender people are those whose brain scans show female-looking brains inside male bodies, and vice versa. Understanding what causes this incongruency (prenatal development, genetics, etc.) is an active area of research. The main scientific takeaway here is that “T” is no more a mental illness than are “LGB.”
You mean after giving people hormones their brain changed? There is no common evidence that they are any different before the hormones. But you called Kirk "psychotic" for believing that every life should be protected but this is psychotic to me, having a meeting where no one is allowed to disagree. Truly pathetic and guaranteed to lead to more murders of people can't hear an opinion they disagree with

I am a little disappointed in myself, I actually thought he had been fired, I believed he had been fired, he was literally suspended for a week and y'all pretended Trump did it. If Trump was involved why did he back off so quickly?

Just read the betting odds of winning the AFC East are now -2500, which equates to a 96% chance. Not sure they should be THAT high but wow.

Just do an online keyword search in Nature, Science, Psychological Review, Cognitive Science, etc…and reverse order your results by citation number. The neural activity of subjects experiencing gender dysphoria show that what they experience is real and innate. Moreover, there is no medication nor brain surgery that can rewire one’s brain so that their experienced gender becomes congruent with the rest of their body. Thus, it is not an “illness” that needs to be “cured” any more than LGB sexual orientation is an illness to be cured.
The classification of gender dysphoria as a mental illness remains controversial because having to navigate our society as a member of the transgender community, to no one’s surprise, does greatly increase the risk for depression, anxiety, etc…
My question is this: why do so many scientifically illiterate MAGA dullards care so much about people’s gender identity?? Mind your own business and stop being so weird! I have several transgender people in my network of friends. It is never an issue worth discussing. They are perfectly normal human beings in every way that matters. They are certainly no more liable to carry out mass shootings or political assassinations than any other demographic.
Now if you want to talk about transgender participation in women’s sports or gender transitioning for minors, those are perfectly legitimate arguments to have…but these arguments shouldn’t be laden with LGBT bigotry.
Rape is a physically and psychologically traumatic act of violence; forcing a woman or a child to carry a rapist’s fetus to term is a nine-month extension of that initial act of violence. For the sake of argument, I will concede your rather extreme** “life begins at conception” position. Our society does legally allow for murder in instances of self-defense from violence. Therefore, aborting a fetus due to rape can easily be argued as a legally justifiable act of self-defense, with the fetus the unfortunate transmitted agent of said violence.
Let’s also stop pretending like the pro-life position is about the sanctity of all life… It’s about controlling female sexual autonomy and treating female fecundity as a man’s property asset.
Regarding your “motherhood versus career” argument: why don’t YOU stay at home then while your wife works full-time??
** - 80-90% of regularly polled Americans are in opposition to pro-life absolutism in instances of rape and i n c e s t.
you are either a liar or mentally deficient if you think I or 90% of the pro life movement care in the least about your sexuality. I think you say something so obviously stupid because you know from a moral stand point that murdering your own children for convenience is horrendous. I know you aren't on here much but your comments are pathetically ignorant of me, which I am open about, I used to have the high paying job but I took a job teaching to be there for my wife and kids on a daily basis. Lastly as for abortion laws, I disagree with him but your calling it "psychotic" is much more telling. Let me ask you, what are your abortion limitations ideally?

I’d be more concerned about groypers. Most political violence in this country is perpetrated by right wingers. Prove me wrong.
Who shot at Trump, Kavanaugh, Kirk, and the country club in NH? Those are the ones off the top of my head. Who is responsible with violent riots in 2020? All of that was political.
-
I think Trump starts high and it quickly drops down to 20k a year, simply to make sure that the companies are not hiring foreigners just because they are cheaper. We should be bringing in the best and brightest from overseas not just average workers

If posting dozens of new threads, all saying basically the same thing, is you helping I can't imagine what you think is being unhelpful

Max you do know that you don't have to post every thought that pops into your head, right?

Every move has to be weighed vs its cost financially to the salary cap, so the only change I think right now that can even be discussed is a Safety because our DL is gonna get better soon with no other fiddling needed.

Charlie Kirk thought women (AND girls) should be legally forced to carry a fetus to birth in cases of rape and i n c e s t. That is f*cking psychotic, dude…
His opinion on the “motherhood versus career” debate is completely worthless. It is up to an individual woman and no one else to decide what’s best for her own life. My own mom, like so many other moms in America, successfully managed both: raising 3 children as a full-time civil engineer, with sufficient help from an awesome dad! I intend to do the same someday. Charlie Kirk types should be free to voice their regressive opinions without threats of violence, obviously, but the inherent fallacy in this particular opinion is thinking one knows what’s best for ALL women.
I am not surprised that a man who tries to protect all innocent people is "psychotic" to a person who thinks the right to butcher a child is paramount to be a "free" society. As for the women's argument of motherhood vs career I will explain it this way, all my work is meaningless without my children. The fact that so many women are being told that having kids is not the pinnacle of being a successful adult is bad.

Like you said. I didn't notice him live either, but if you look at all-22 you see that he had lot of good plays in both run defense and pass rush. I started doing that this year for the first time and it gave me completely new perspective.
Right now I don't have time for that, I watch it once live and then the condensed game but I accept I definitely don't see everything. I was just surprised because usually the eye test and PFF line up pretty close.

How did we get to the point where this women can complain about this attack while ignoring the thousands of rapes in reverse? Obviously it is openly racist and she expects more from White men than from men of her own race.

I didn't care for a lot of his religious takes either, but on most topics I found myself more or less aligned.
Sounds like you should be proud that she was able to listen, and come away with her own informed opinion.
I am thrilled with her doing her own research and coming to an intelligent conclusion. I was not even aware she had been checking to see what the fuss was about since her friends had already told how hateful he was. So very proud but the last comment was more to point out she is still a teen and needs to win.

Bills have three players that hopefully will be returning soon.
Hairston and Hoecht seem like locks to make the 53. Ogunjobi to me is 50/50.
Play GM for a moment and post what you would do knowing what you know today.
Here is what I would do...
Add Hairston - Cut Ingram
Add Hoecht - put Milano on IR designated to return - this gives Milano time to heal and kicks the decision on another player down the road.
Add Ogunjobi and cut DQ. I considered just cutting Ogunjobi but DQ has been awful.
As much as I want to get rid of Epenesa, DQ is playing even worse.
I also considered cutting Samuel but I think they keep him for injury insurance.
I agree with your comment but I just posted this in the other thread, is it possible Jones is doing his job and we just don't know what it is? Seriously to be this high on PFF should lean he was at least good

Do not take medical advice from Donald Trump.

The videos of pregnant women pounding Tylenol to "own" Trump are truly disturbing. To be so political you will risk destroying your childs life is psychotic. I will point out I asked my wife if she took Tylenol and put doctor had told her to stay away except if her fever was out of control, otherwise use Advil
