This is when somebody argues by DEFLECTING anything said against them.
They will NEVER address any issues brought against them or their point but will instantly bring something else up to change the subject
Deflective racists use this tactic whenever a situation/fact is brought up that goes against there beliefs
People do this because they know damn well if they try to address the issue or stay relevant to it, there entire argument will get derailed

A weasel word preface used when a person wishes to make an argument or state an opinion while making it look like they are stating fact. If asked specifically about the "some" they've mentioned, the person will usually not be able to list a source of note. (You, by yourself, are NOT a source of note for the purposes of "some argue.")
Most commonly seen on open-edit sites like Wikipedia.

A funny image that perfectly describes those crazy people who argue on the net by comparing them to a member of the special olympics. (The other guy defining this obviously does it)

Unfortunately the meeting didn't go well. Eric starting getting pedantic, and decided to argue the toss over a trivial detail of the plan.
