General Picking

The standard form of cherry-picking: selectively choosing data or examples that support a general claim while ignoring a significant portion of relevant, contrary data. It’s the most common method of constructing a misleading yet seemingly reasonable argument, where the selected evidence is truthful but the resulting picture is false because it’s incomplete.

Example: "The ad used general picking to sell the supplement: 'Studies show increased vitality!' It picked the two small, company-funded studies with positive results and ignored the fifty independent studies showing no effect beyond a placebo. The general claim was built on a specially picked foundation."

General Logic

The attempt to apply a broadly accepted logical framework (like deductive reasoning) to a situation where the premises are too vague, subjective, or contested for the logic to yield a reliable conclusion. It’s using a good tool on the wrong material.

Example: "His general logic sounded solid: 'All birds have feathers. A penguin is a bird. Therefore, penguins can fly.' The logic was formally valid, but the general understanding of 'bird' he relied on was flawed for this specific case, making the conclusion famously wrong."

General Rationality

Adherence to the common, shared standards of reason and evidence-based thinking within a given society or discourse community. It’s the baseline "good sense" expected in normal discussion, though its boundaries can be culturally specific.

Example: "In the meeting, general rationality prevailed: we looked at the sales data, projected costs, and market trends before deciding. We didn't consult astrological charts or flip a coin. We used the broadly accepted toolkit for business decisions."

General Argument

The standard, commonly encountered argument form that follows a recognizable structure (claim, evidence, conclusion) about a general subject. It’s the workhorse of debates, essays, and everyday persuasion when done competently.

Example: "He presented a general argument for exercise: it improves cardiovascular health (evidence: these studies), boosts mood (evidence: these surveys), and increases lifespan (evidence: this meta-analysis). It was straightforward, evidence-based, and effective."

General Debate

A structured, conventional debate on a broad topic, following established formats and norms, with the goal of persuading a third party or exploring the strengths of opposing viewpoints. Think presidential debates or high school forensics.

Example: "The general debate on the new city budget was civil and informative. The mayor presented her proposal, the council outlined counter-proposals, and they argued over line items and priorities within the agreed-upon framework of civic improvement and fiscal responsibility."
