Hey TL,
I've spent the last hour searching for a blog post that I can pick apart. I have an assignment for class where I need to find a blog post that I disagree with, and point out fallacies in their argument, like slippery slope, false dichotomy, etc. I don't know if it's just because I'm tired or what, but I can't find one to save my life. It has to be something widely recognized, not a blog one of your friends writes (or a post on TL), as well as not overly offensive.
All help is appreciated!

Torte?
@Mani People like her made feminism the despicable extremist movement it is today. That said if you do pick it apart for a class project you might get into heated, passionate, and therefore illogical and irrational and unwinnable arguments with others.

Wow Manifesto, they treated you like complete shit from the one comment that's still there. I'm assuming there's a bunch of other comments that she deleted, like she said. It's nice to see them all backing her up while she slipped around your points. It's actually kind of painful, and it's nice that you didn't rage at how they were treating you.
Edit: hey cool 1337.
I like that the argument is that it's okay to censor stuff, and let's not call it censorship even, if it's a blog. Man reading the comments hurt. If the Geoff there was Incontrol, ouch.

WOW those articles made me angry. holy shit, I don't even know what to say. I had a response typed up that I was going to send her, but what's the point?
|
Bwahahaha, I still remember that shit storm. Those guys were a bunch of pricks, it's unbelievable.
|
lol i remember that debacle
monion's troll was especially funny
|
Lol I don't understand how some articles ever get written. There was no content proving her argument in that one, just rambling.
|
Manifesto your my new hero, i wish i was there for that. I read most of them and i was surprised there wasn't like page long arguments until she said she deleted comments. Which then lead me to believe she just deleted anything she couldn't find a counter-argument to.

That site is fucking scary man....
I hate activists, whatever their cause may be, because most of them never can never see the full spectrum of things. Only their own opinion....
|
Holy shit, that woman was a lunatic. Just like the people who mindlessly followed her.
|
Yeah I remember posting on her site trying to reason with her and my shit getting deleted. She was straight up pants on head retarded.
lol I just went back and found some of my quotes lol
+ Show Spoiler +I can assure you that teamliquid doesnt approve of sexual harrasment.
Stupid people may very well be harrassed. However this is not a gender specific principal.
Please make a note of the difference.
lol..
honestly I wouldnt even post the links here. they deserve 0 traffic from tl

Holy. Fucking. Shit.
My brain is rattling around in my head from reading all those posts about "sexual harassment" and "UN Tribunals."

I love this response to Manifesto, "Let’s see. In all your comments and emails, you’ve shown absolutely no desire whatsoever to consider the possibility you are wrong. Now, why would I waste my valuable time trying to argue with people under those conditions?" Does she not understand what arguing usually is? Clearly it sure seems like she doesn't think she could possibly be wrong either.
