I am aware of
I want to know I theres any others I’m not aware of
Mort and Bailey, when they’ll have a weak argument and a much stronger argument, they get you to attack the weak argument, and then they retreat to the stronger, more limited argument.
It’s a “motte” FYI
Is there a word for dragging the argument to near-unrelated topics? E.g, post about lemmy.ml having comments on whether Ukraine has a nazi government.
I believe that’s “whataboutism”?
Any logical falacy
What do you call someone who is convinced you are something you aren’t, based on assumptions and conclusions based on those assumptions and demands you prove them wrong otherwise, they think, they win? Like I’m going to give you my resume to prove I’m not what you think I am? Nope
What do you call someone …
A moron?
Motte and bailey.
all of them, and are done by propaganda bots, like from russia, and israel.
It must be nice knowing that you’re so correct that everyone who disagrees with you must be a bot.
Asking the same question over and over for years…
Then just JAGing off (just asking questions) till the other person gets tired of explaining.
Like, if people want to insist on rehashing something from over a decade ago despite it being settled history at this point.
They don’t want to actually discuss it, they have an opinion they agree with, and want to scream at someone for valuing facts more than their opinion
Barney-Rubbing
I misread and had so many questions about Barney the big purple dinosaur.
These are nonsense words
Come on, no one’s ever overwhelmed you in bad faith online.
There’s some good examples and discussion here youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJA_jUddXvY7v0VkYRbANn…
I love Innuendo Studio’s stuff. Such a bummer that he’s most likely quitting.
How about asking why you lose the argument instead of trying to label all this crap.
It’s like you’re watching your 12th “how to build a full stack application” video while they’ve already finished their 2nd project.
End of the day what they use to succeed is effort. We don’t. Look at the answers here telling you it’s pointless to engage. That’s why they succeed online. Those people
Is this a joke? Analysis of techniques would be literally asking why an argument were lost, if an argument was indeed lost. Of course you’re making a lot of assumptions there, and I agree you’re not making an effort
Analysis just leads you further down the incorrect path. The answer is in the title. “Overwhelm” the only answer is we all need to make more content and to share and disseminate it. We need to act, not study.
shhh…
it takes 10 gallons of intelligent discussion to dilute an ounce of stupid and the OC was about 400 gallons of pure unfiltered retarded stupidity.
they did have a point though, sometimes the only way to win is to not play.

Online arguements take ten times the energy to put in than to exit out, any well thought arguement could be shut down just by ignoring it, or making up reasons to avoid confronting it (whataboutism for example)
