Arguement

A conversational discrepancy while unemployed and or not receiving a salary to make deductions from that occurs every attempt to make fee payment request to a parent or friend and or during a job interview with a potential employer and or trying and justify not having a job due to failures and or inadequacies. Usually involves raised voices and sometimes physical contact. In the less evolved and or poorer societies sometimes leads to one and or the other dying through some type of unsolicited rage and is labeled domestic violence in certain law enforcement agencies police reports and or files for one example and then the other person has to get arrested and or go to jail with some type of manslaughter sentence for a certain duration of years and sometimes multiple years after some low grade detective is supposed to followup on a missing persons report. Otherwise generally arguments are found in programming languages however have more to do with system arguments rather than human conversation text and more to do system, programming and handling errors, mostly jargon and difficult to label in intellisense in the ide for solutions and pops out for sde as a programming coding error and or bug reporting error where not all the coding end points are defined and or the specific plugin fixes and requires some sort of patch job. Some educational institutions create debates. Generally avoided

I don't want to get into an arguement over "insert sensitive topic and or subject word here" because this is the solution "insert solution" said no one ever.

straw man arguement

A locical fallacy in which the arguementative point is made into a caracature of it's original point. Extremely effective because it's not based on facts, but lies and assumptions. The burden of proof then lies in the defense, not the offense. Especially effective when the defense isn't allowed to offer objection. Popularized by right wing talk radio hosts Rush and Hannity.

Step one: Build the straw man. Ignore facts and make outlandish lies/slander. Redefine the facts. "liberals want to take your guns away and turn the U.S. over to the U.N."

Step 2: Knock down the straw man. "That flies in the face of everything we Americans believe in."

Step 3: Connect step 2 to step 1. "Only a communist would think of something like that."

Step 4: "Negate" your opponant by opposing the conclusion in step 3. "I hate those liberal communists. If they think us right-wingers will sit quietly while they destroy the country the're dead wrong."

Rush and Hannity can't argue the facts, so they have to make up the "evil liberal agenda" and then appear patriotic by opposing it.

Hot chocolate arguement

An argument that is silly and can't be resolved. Usually about symantics.

The genesis is an argument over whether hot chocolate is still hot chocolate if it's cold.

This is just a hot chocolate arguement
