    yes dude. Its like trying to have a conversation with someone about moby dick who has never read the book.
    But you keep going with your stance…

    here we go again.
    I offer up info for you to check out and you tell me im wrong without checking it out and then try make me out as the irrational one.
    All we do is spin circles because of that bs.
    Go quote someone else and harass them with your know it all stance bro.
    Others and i were doing fine until you entered and quoted me.
    Typical though. or better yet, back on ignore. Problem solved.

    Nowhere in this discussion did I say you were wrong or irrational. I never acted like a know it all. And haven't harassed you at all. But ok.

    I'm going to need you to read through this list of logical fallacies and the explanations thereof before I can discuss further the issues with your argument.

    How pompous is it for someone to offer information that helps define their opinion to have the other party say i dont need to watch the show to know you are mixing things up and to discuss your opinion??

    The opinion is in part derived from the show!!!

    my head hurts from trying to figure out how one could have such a stance and yet consider themselves on point or rational.
    i mean come on…
    Its one thing to have a differing opinion, but its another when someone cites info explaining it defines their opinion, to have the other party say they don't need to look into the info to understand the others opinion is based on mixing things up.

    Basically just a slap in the face….

    It's not difficult for parents to limit screen time for their kids. The distractions are the fault of poor parenting skills or efforts, not lack of government restrictions.

    Formal
    A formal fallacy is defined as an error that can be seen within the argument's form. Every formal fallacy is a non sequitur (or, an argument where the conclusion does not follow from the premise.)


    I expect more from you platy. You have insinuated my argument has a fallacy but have not defined why or how other than im comparing apples to oranges, of which i countered with real examples that follow my opinion that are, in fact, current laws.

    If your opinion is informed by the movie, and you understand the content of the movie well enough for your opinion to be thusly-well-informed, then you should be able to articulate that which you learned.

    Not true or everyone would just write their own book or movie for themselves. You can understand something without being able to put together the words to properly explain. Especially when the show also contains visuals and skits.
    I can fully understand the need for a water filtering system without understanding how it works or being able to explain how it works to fill the need.

    There are several logical fallacies you've employed throughout this discussion. However, I believe you to be too married to your position to consider them, so I'm going to bow out. I am fine with us disagreeing; I'd rather we not argue about the manner of our disagreement. More important for us to get along well. :cheers:

    oh come on. You are going to say that without pointing out the falacies and WHY they are fallacies?

    Sorry thats a copout.

    Yes, I'm going to say that, because if I get into why I believe they're fallacies, you're then going to come back with why they're not, and then we're going to be arguing about arguing, and then eventually arguing about arguing about arguing, and I'd like to avoid that.

    I'll accept you telling me that my retreat is "a copout" over perpetuating an unnecessary argument.

    i see it as education through discussion. But it has to be up and up. If you see it as an argument, I cant control that.
