If Will Ferrel had died, and there was no author commentary, it would have been a great tragedy. But I thought it was still a decent comedy. | |||

Originally posted by GuardianOni To merely correct someone, that is not a crime. Nevertheless, I thank you for your explanation. Do you know what, Elara? I don't care what you got in logic, it doesn't mean you can't admit you were wrong and move on. Everyone gets something wrong, and the world would be a better place if everyone learned from their mistakes. As I was saying, under normal position, I would say that a free enlistment might be best, but in our class-based society, the idea of a free enlistment gives the wealthy an unfair advantage, other that "patriotism" or "insanity" or "homicidal nature," anyone who makes a good salary has no reason to join the military.

Originally posted by Elara It's very simple, add 100 billion to the education budget. And make some progressive taxes, and raise the upper margins on taxes. Voila, now I can go to college. And possible get taught by a teacher. |

Originally posted by Elara No clue, I get it back at the end of December, but I couldn't do SAT IIs, so it probably doesn't matter even if I get in the 2200s up. Although the SATs are easy as hell and I've completed half a year of college classes, go figure. |

I like the overall figure, but I think the front arm and hand look a bit too stiff, though the back arm seems pretty good. I can only draw stick figures, so I think that's awesome. | |||

Originally posted by Vulkar If one must know, "tax the poor more" isn't the correct way to say it, one might say increase regressive taxes. Same think for the statement "tax the rich more," it's called increase progressive taxes. An increase in proportional taxes is what you might want to say for question c. What I'm trying to make clear is that where is the line for "knowledgable"? And in a democratic state, I would think the value of democracy outweighs knowledge. |

Originally posted by Vulkar College is over $10000 a year without room and board, and that's the public university system. And I didn't in fact read your post, but ad hominem means against the person, it's basically attacking someone instead of the subject at hand. It's commonly known as "you're stupid," and other such remarks. |

Originally posted by Vulkar Let me break up the main points into bite-sized chunks. One is required to take government and economics in high school. That is about the equivalent of your entire argument. The actual system would not be changed, as the greatest fundraiser or encumbent usually wins anyways. What gives one the blatent right to tread over other's human agency? In a democratic state, the idea of democratic ideals usally carry a great deal of weight. Therefore, I think it's safe to say that the democratic ideal of voting rather important. I'm sick and tired of your snakes in this thread, tell them to get out. The questions you state are underscored by their blatent subjectivity. Your definition of knowledge, ironically, is supposed to be purely empirical data. |

Originally posted by Vulkar Ad hominem is any attack that is against the person, hence "ad hominem." I just made one example, others might be calling someone a hypocrite, or in any way trying to relate the person to what they're saying. Appeal to emotion, or in this case fear, is an attempt to manipulate someone's thought based on their emotions. To provide a completely not PM example: "Stop postign or i bann you." It's not hard to debate morality, but this isn't the place. To say that "everyone else" knows something is an example of the ad populum fallacy, as well as saying what "most americans" think, which is also unsupported by evidence. I think this guy has a point, and it's just going over people's heads. The point is that today, people are all to ready to start a war, as long as they don't have to fight it. It's all very well for a bunch of wealthy bureaucrats--it's pretty hard to get up there without money--to start a war they really don't have to pay the consequences, and can only gain from war. Now if their children and grandchildren had to go to war, would they be as likely to start a war with such levity? Would someone be so quick to say "I don't care" or some other indifferent remark if it was their life at stake? The point is that people start to think of other people as a means, as cannonfodder, not as people. |

Originally posted by Vulkar I disagree with your definition, as your definition of knowledge only covers what is pedantic, and ignores the normative nature of knowledge. In short, I declare your definition fundamentally flawed, and therefore your entire case explodes, in a highly exothermic reaction. Empirical data has no real value, as I have said, and you have not refuted. Your case is so riddled with holes that I really have no reason to address more flaws until you start to rebute them, which you haven't. The common practice in debate is that if the affirmative doesn't uphold their case, they automatically lose, while the negating side has no such burden, but to disprove the affirmation. I'm sick and tired of these metaphysical snakes on my plane of thought. Vulkar should be tested for chemistry by being thrown in a next of poisonous snakes and then, given basic components, make himself an antidote, without the aid of multiple-choice questions. Just like a lab! ![]() By the way, you need a resolution. It should be a concise sentence. |

To answer Xander's question: no, he has the right to freedom of speech, although he's black.
While Michael Richards was just attacking the image of black people, this guy in the movie pointed out a lot of valid points, like the economic slavery and normalized racism against minorities, though he still made some absurd remarks. |

Originally posted by Elara I was just pointing out the irony of his statement, but pointing out fallacies is usually part of debate. The fallacy being your opponent's case, and pointing out being why yours is preferable. |

Originally posted by Thexare Blademoon That's extending on the ad hoc imaginary rulebook in the sky, no? Since according to the FAQ, the only easily accessible set of rules concerning spam: "A post that is off-topic, meaning that it has nothing to do with the original thread. A post that is only a few words long and doesn't contribute anything meaningful to the discussion" However, the picture is both on-topic and many might say that it is in fact meaningful to the discussion, and if one person feels that, then it has in fact met the critierion of "not spam." Notice the conjuction "and," which means that to be spam, something must be off-topic or it must be a few words long, as well as not contributing any meaningful discussion. However, as all can see, there are no words in Xander's post, if I might bring up a technicality. On the other hand, Cheveyo's post was completely off-topic, and does not at all contribute to the discussion. He could have sent a PM, which does in fact exist. All this is assuming there is any sort of "law" on Xeogaming, and that members aren't at the mercy of the whims of fickle administration. Which I do hope isn't the case. Moving on, I for one, had not in fact seen that Penny Arcade comic, and I found it highly facetious, and relevant to the topic at hand. It was really funny, too. ![]() [Edited for accuracy!] (Last edited by Logos on 12-14-06 05:45 AM) |
