Feminists believing that all men are stupid, sex driven, fat, lazy, and worthless.

Nevermind the fact that they dont want equal rights. They want MORE rights.

"What's your point?"

Dumbest argument ever. Just an idiot's means of trying to deter the guy who's point is perfectly clear to the other heads in the room except this individual just declared "What's your point?" with a room temperature I.Q. I guess that's even lower if you measuring in metric! That's what they're really saying is "You're using complex sentence structure and big words that confuse and scare me and I need you to dumb it down for me so I'm gonna be a Dick and say that instead."

Ok so there's a news story. Guy gets molested by a priest as a kid. 30 years later he beats the shit out of the priest (who is now an old man). One guy was trying to argue that this would qualify as a hate crime and thus we should get rid of hate crimes.

How was it a hate crime? According to him the man beat the shit out of him because he was a pedophile thus attacking him for his sexual orientation.

Because the guy obviously attacked the priest because he hated him.

The political stance of Murdoch doesn't affect the news segment? I mean that WAS his argument.


During the time when he created Fox News he was a conservative (due to his public support of Margaret thatcher)and made Republican Roger Ailes the CEO. He's been switching parties for years. But either way it doesn't sound like the actions of a "left-winger" right?

Um, no he wasn't. He supported Al Gore in 2000, Kerry in 2004, and Clinton in 2008. He may have supported a conservative at one point...but if he did, I was in single digits of age, and the internet wasn't recording that at that point.


Also if you want to argue semantics, he doesn't own Fox news. Fox news is owned by Fox Entertainment group. F.E.G is owned by News Corporation, which is a conglomerate and has many owners.

Who directly owns and operates Fox News? Rupert Murdoch. As acknowledged by the FCC, and the US government. But hey, slight of hand is fun!

"XYZ makes people violent." Because violence never existed before XYZ.

"You religious nuts...." Because if someone is religious, that automatically invalidates anything they said. Same for "You Democrats" or "You Republicans". Don't address the argument. Just the person.

"I disagree." Who cares. Back it up. Give some reasoning, stats, whatever. Try to argue. This isn't grade school. "You're wrong" isn't a valid argument.

"Fox News has a right wing slant."

Exactly! People need evidence by correlation that all (or at least most) religious people are corrupt. I suppose it depends on the religion, but if you classify all religious people as being responsible for the September 11th attacks or the Crusades or whatever, but listen to the individual's doctrine.

Exactly! Even after that you need to extensively read the research in order to understand the findings. Not just the experts conclusions, but also the raw data as much as possible.

I remember someone trying to argue that group (x) is better at (1) than group (y). He didn't even bother to do any research, so I did. I found out the samples were heavily sided, over 90% of the subjects were from group (x)! He didn't even state that in his findings he just made a mention of it in an interview.

Saying:''Barack Obama is a nazi'' isn't an argument...
Oh and what you said that it's a bad argument because the nazis would have never let him in, is pretty stupid too. You shouldn't take it too literal.
I completely agree with it being stupid, since Obama doesn't have ANY characteristic of that of a nazi.
But your argument saying it is a dumb statement, is kind of dumb.

I wish you knew what you were talking about but you really don't. I have spent my whole natural life having to take shit from The Republican Party to have an exceptional understanding of them and I can tell you they are truly xenophobic, idiotic and arrogant enough to truly, honestly, literally believe such a statement to be true. I know. The Republican Party is the most xenophobic, idiotic and arrogant party on this planet called Earth with the exception of one: The Third Reich. Next time try actually reading the previous pages of a thread like you should if you had you would know this is a debate thread.

/argument
Rupert Murdoch, the owner of Fox news, is an ardant left winger. He has supported EVERY democrat candidate for president since the 70s. Claiming that a life long Democrat is scheming to tilt the news to the right is moronic.

No. Rupert Murdock is a Republican. I don't know who put that idea in your head but they are wrong and if you truly believe such you too are wrong. Rupert Murdock is no more a Democrat than Stephen Colbert is a Republican. For those of you who are grossly misinformed Stephen Colbert is a Democrat who takes on the persona of a Republican for the sole purpose of lampooning on The Republican Party! I am shocked at how little Republicans can or have picked up on this! The verdict is: Fox News it bad and Republican by the tab of 8 to 2. Fox News is indeed bad and Republican. Majority rules. That's Democracy.

"The/A Holocaust never happened."

I know what you're thinkin' "Theres more than one?" You bet your ass there's more then one.

1) The Armenian Genocide: In World War I The Germans invaded Armenia and completely destroyed every single member of the nation of Armenia. The current peoples of the republic of Armenia are non native they're merely immigrants. There are no more Native Armenians in existence on Earth. Holocaust.

2) The Holocaust: In World War II The Germans under The Third Reich began the systematic slaughter of an estimated 13 million people. They were Jewish, Gipsy, Gay, Environmentalist, Immigrant Workers, People with conditions, people inclined to speak out against The Nazis and Twins. They were either gassed, burned alive, starved to death or tortured to death. It shocked and awed the entire world including the German people and to this date many Germans are unsure they can be proud to be German because of the war crimes of The Third Reich. Holocaust. The Germans have invented a word for people who seek joy and laughter in other people's misfortunes: "Schadenfreut" I'm not sure if that's the correct spelling but the correct pronunciation is SHAH-DEN-FROYT

3)Atomic Holocaust: In World War II the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by the atomic bombs Little Boy and Fat Man. 25,000 people died instantly in the blast at Hiroshima. 100,000 people died instantly in the blast at Nagasaki. 60,000 people died from complications due to radiation poisoning an accumulated total of 185,000 people. Holocaust. That is the namesake for the scenario of Nuclear Holocaust. Nuclear Holocaust is when every living thing on a planet is killed by a series of Atomic Bombs being dropped.

In some parts of the world they actually have laws against denouncing The Holocaust. So if the Republicans want to make an anti flag burning amendment turnabout is fairplay then we must make an anti cross burning amendment and an amendment that makes denouncing any Holocaust a federal offense.

It's hard to quantify how "dumb" an argument is. Devoid of logic? Everything liberals and religious people say is equally dumb in that respect.


∀x (∃e (e ∈ x ∧ ∀x ¬(x ∈ e)) ∨ ∃y ¬∃e (e ∈ x ∧ ¬∃z (z ∈ y ∧ z ∈ e ∧ ∀x ¬((x ∈ y ∧ x ∈ e) ∧ ¬(x = z)))))

If you mean argument by something that I actually heard in real life, I would have to say this one time when my mom was talking about my brother improving on his life and my brother defended himself by saying nothing he did mattered because she was just living in the past. Everything is going to be in the past eventually (reminds me of "The Lion King") so why do anything? In terms of other stuff, anything by Christopher Hitchens.
