assume the position

It could be viewed and used sexually... but in reality..

It is a statement that you make right before you make a big assumption. I'm not quite sure on the technicalities of it all but...

Assume (v)
6. To take for granted; suppose

Position (N)
6.A point of view or attitude on a certain question


So you are taking for granted, or supposing, on a point of view or attitude on a given subject.

If you say this around your friends, they will think of the nasty word first, but then you can impress them with your superior vocabulary skills.

This was possibly made popular from HBO's Robert Wuhl Assume the Position. Where he talks about things that history books tend to ignore.
"I'm going to assume the position, right off the bat, that history is pop culture." -Robert Wuhl

"I think it's safe to assume the position, that there was no such thing as a colonial quickie." -Robert Wuhl

A political form of Poisoning the Well where a position is discredited by associating it with extreme or reviled ideologies, regardless of the actual views of those who hold it. Accusing all BRICS+ supporters of "Nazbol/Duginism/Z Nationalism" regardless of their actual reasons is a classic example. The move poisons the position by painting anyone who holds it as tainted by association with extremism. The fallacy lies in treating political alignment as evidence of ideology, ignoring the diversity of reasons people might support something. It's guilt by association applied to positions, not just people—poisoning the position so no one can hold it without being tainted.
Poisoning the Position Fallacy "I support BRICS+ because of multipolarity and economic cooperation. Response: 'Oh, so you're a Duginist Nazi-Bolshevik!' That's Poisoning the Position Fallacy—associating my position with extremism to discredit it, regardless of my actual views. My reasons are mine; their associations are theirs. Poisoning the position avoids engaging what I actually think by tarring it with brushes I never touched."

The Spock Position

This is a sex position. Start by simply holding your hand out like Spock does on the show "Star Trek" then set your legs up the way your hands are placed. For those wondering what the thumb is, its the midget watching.
