Wrong.
Even if you think you are right, o arbiter of truth, apparently dozens of people disagree with your take when shown context. That's on you bro. Go fix it.
lol @ copy and paste. You’re committing a second logical fallacy: appeal to authority.
Still so wrong “bro”
lol you missed the duplicate the first time, yet another sign of your illiteracy. And you ignored it, typical of the belligerent hypocrite... But tell us, o wise one, what "authority" do you feel was appealed to?
Did not miss it just thought you were lazy, and I was right. You’ve never even heard of logical fallacies, have you?
Quick review: I fully understand your point, as demonstrated by you not correcting me, despite being repeatedly challenged to do so. You think you understand mine, but do not. And never have. Which is why you’re so full of yourself here. Again, laughably so.
You couldn’t argue your way out of a paper bag. Proof: this discussion. You don’t even know which way is up.
I do appreciate the fun though.
Wrong, I called you wrong already, you weird liar.
Your fault, even if I assume you might be right.
Genuinely, are you mentally well? I asked you what authority you think I'm appealing to. Am I speaking to a person or an LLM?
Oh my sweet summer child https://www.logicallyfallacious.com/logicalfallacies/Appeal-to-Authority
What is the name of the authority you think I used?
Look at the examples in the link you posted.
Do I have to draw a picture for you, o smart one?
You really don’t get it? Oh my.
Let’s see if you can take the first baby step. What do you think my argument is? If you can’t do that then I can’t help you any more.
You accused me of an appeal to authority. Tell me the name of the authority.
We aren't switching topics until you actually finish your accusation (and we both know you're wrong and you can't), or I get a retraction and apology from you (also likely impossible).
I just want a tiny fraction of the truth you say you want.
You can’t do it, can you?
And you're broken as expected. You accused me of appeal to authority, that's the argument you chose to make.
O Truthful One: what authority
You can’t do it can you? Because you already did go back, recognized how badly you fucked up, and are now like a dog with a bone; too dumb to understand both original comment’s references and that saying “look how many ppl downvoted you” has zero bearing on factual correctness.
You keep saying you did state my point to ensure you understand it. Link it.
Is that your final answer on the "authority"? People? lol
Everything u say is a an intended distraction from your initial massive failure. Can’t handle being so wrong, can ya?
Ah the projection
Bro an appeal to authority requires an authority be appealed to, you capable of acknowledging that?
I explained that. You are a dog with a bone. Just as sharp too - can’t remember the question you’ve just been asked. And been asked so many times.
So. Many. Times.
And again, no you haven’t gotten it remotely right. You’re furious and you don’t even know about what.
Beating on a straw man. Furious, he sits at the straw man: everyone agrees you’re wrong! Why won’t you see!?!
I’m sitting over here like lol this has nothing to do with me. You go be mad at yo’ little self and the straw man. Get ‘im! rofl.
O wise LLM, what authority are you accusing me of appealing to
Take a break from being a hypocrite and realize that if the truth isn't enough, I don't want it.
Broken record bro.
