This is off-topic from my point.



Deflection.



Wrong. You made a mistake that is easy to spot.



That is by defination an ad hom fallacy. Hilarious.

Ad hominem - Wikipedia

"Ad hominem (Latin for "to the person"),[1] short for argumentum ad hominem, typically refers to a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself"

Try again.





The link was the argument.



That is an ad hom fallacy.



Same mistake you have made for days. Try again



I never made a strawman as I am not modifying your argument. Look up the meaning of the terms you use and try again. I am making a similar argument you made. One which you refuse to answer as it would refute your own objections to Rosends' source. You are transparent.

Does Fox New's bias make the weather report wrong? Yes or no?

Your point is off topic from the reality of this thread

Fact

What mistake, the only mistakes i have made are spelling errors in phrases not relevant to the thread but relevant to @rosends posts

Dont talk rubbish (again), my post was a genuine and valid counter to @rosends link. Sorry if that confuses you


I countered the link

Dont talk rubbish again my post was a genuine and valid counter to @rosends link

So you are unable to state what they are... That is nothing new

Fox is irrelevant.

It makes little difference to the fact that you cherry picked a part of a sentence

Again you seem to have reading problems.
And you do not understand either what cherry picking is or how it is not relevant to what I did. You should study up on fallacies and recognize that just because you intended something different from what you wrote doesn't mean that someone is at fault when understanding and responding to what you actually wrote. I used my understanding of your actual words to present the relevant part of the sentence. Because of what you actually wrote, my excision did not change meaning.

Cherry picking : the action or practice of choosing and taking only the most beneficial or profitable items, opportunities, etc., from what is available.


And are you going to continue derailing the thread with pedantic trivialities?

I took the statement you made and responded to it accurately. You label accuracy and honesty "pedantic trivialities"?

You took part of the statement i made, why do you have such difficulty with this? Yes. That is a question mark

And i see your English is failing but if you want other languages

Yes, I took part. Simply taking part is not cherry picking. This is what you fail to comprehend. I can take your post and reply to it, omiting the second part because it is irrelevant to what is being discussed (exactly what I have done in this post, by the way). As I was replying to your first part and omiting the second half (because, as written, it asked a question) because that was what was relevant.

You wrote it wrong so I went by what I understood from what you wrote. You want to criticize me for not intuiting your intent and instead abiding by your actual content. That's illogical.

Did you see a question mark?

Hey, @Landon Caeli
Maybe if you asked the staff to move a bunch of posts that are about personal quibbling over typos, semantics, and cherry picking to another thread it would be possible to discuss the OP reasonably.

Interesting because there is no question mark in that post of mine
You wrote

Note the question mark that you called my attention to -- after the word "this." It indicated a question which I answered. Not sure what else you want from me.

How curious.

I'm not ranting. I responded perfectly to 408. You are the one who admitted making an error in 408. I then explainied how I felt about the offer. What more could you want

I want the truth about you saw a question mark on 408, you know a question mark, the thing that makes the sentence a question.

I didn't include one in the post you just answered. What made you think I was asking a question? Maybe it was my choice of words ;)

To paraphrase, you stated you cherry picked to omit the question.
