You lashing out with personal attacks when met with facts that debunk your beliefs is not the fault of others. And when you falsely perceive others as feeling the “anguish” (the word you chose) that you, yourself, feel in these moments, that’s psychological projection.
Nobody else is to blame for your inability to process rejection and the upending of your “beliefs” in a healthy manner; it’s yours and yours alone. Too bad you gambled your health and well-being on not getting health insurance, or you’d be able to work through such difficult emotions with a therapist.
You already produced that evidence when you commented…every time you comment. And I point it out every time. Just like the ad hominem attacks. But you seem to have serious memory problems.
It’s irrational to blame others for things you, yourself, do and say.
I already answered this, but since you seem to have a terrible case of amnesia, here is the answer again:
you’re spreading false information (your “beliefs”) as fact which could be harmful to others if they’re foolish enough to believe you. I don’t have to gain something in return just to do the right thing by posting the correct information in response. Life isn’t some zero-sum game where I have to be motivated by personal gain simply to do the right thing or because your feelings got hurt.
but you have said that I attacked you personally but your unwilling to say where or how.
I said every time I pointed out your ad hominem attacks. Your lack of/inability to understand is at the core of this debate, and still not my fault (nor my responsibility). Your failures are your own responsibility as are your foolish decisions when you gamble your health, well-being, and financial future by not getting health insurance.
It’s pretty irrational to blame others for your own words and actions.
A psychotherapist would be able to help you with your fantasizing that internet strangers that hurt your feelings are, themselves, feeling the “anguish” you feel.
Psychologists call it “projection”.
And if you hadn’t gambled your health and well-being on not getting health insurance, you wouldn’t have to pay so much for that therapy. ¯(ツ)_/¯
Argumentum ad populum (Latin for "argument to the people") is a logical fallacy that occurs when something is considered to be true or good solely because it is popular. Undoubtedly many popular notions are true, but their truth is not a function of their popularity, except in circumstances where other factors ensure that popularity is related to truth. The fallacy is the opposite of an appeal to the minority.
Once again (because of your amnesia), I don’t define words. The dictionary does. Children understand this concept. Why do you struggle so much with it?
And of you don’t know what the words “friendly” and “debate” mean, then you shouldn’t be using them in a sentence.
As for this “anguish” you keep fantasizing about, you really should see a doctor about that.
My belief in Christianity says that gambling is a sin and that why I dont use insurance.
So how is it a straw man argument or irrelevant subject?
Considering that you only mentioned this in response to my pointing out that your “beliefs” in Christianity are irrelevant to a debate over health insurance is gambling, it’s pretty clear that you’re lying in order to conflate the two.
And, considering how obviously dishonest you’ve been in almost every comment you’ve made here, my conclusion that you’d resort to lying rather than lose an argument is well-supported by the available evidence.
You’re expressing your anguish and redefining everything to gambling again.
Once again, I don’t define words, the dictionary does. I simply used the word “gambling” correctly. Blaming me for using a word correctly is irrational.
It’s like our whole conversation distilled into one sentence
And that sentence is: Your “beliefs” are based on ignorance, and you keep attacking everyone who points that out rather than to simply admit that you’re wrong.
Gee, those memory problems seem to be getting worse. Seems pretty foolish to have gambled on not getting health insurance when you appear to be in such need.
I asked about your usage of the quotation marks because it seems like you feel like my beliefs are less then.
A straw man and deflection. Your insecurities about your “beliefs” has nothing to do with health insurance.
This is totally bringing me back to my Reddit days, so thank you for that!
Yeah, people here usually don’t use so many obvious logical fallacies and circular arguments like you do. Most people know better.
You told me I was personally attacking you so I figured it must be a big deal to you if you are bringing it up.
I keep mentioning it because you keep doing it. I am not responsible for your actions, so it pretty absurd to blame me for the things you keep doing— especially when you put the responsibility of doing the work to address it on me.
But you won’t tell me what I did that you feel was attacking you so I can apologize to you and not repeat the words
Perhaps you shouldn’t have gambled on personally attacking me if you don’t like the outcome.
that are causing you as much anguish.
You seem to be obsessed with imagining me in “anguish”. Do you often fantasize about strangers in anguish? Do such thoughts give you pleasure? They must because you can’t seem to stop…
So, in addition to your evident memory problems, you have sadistic fantasies in which you imagine the people you lose arguments to in “anguish”? Yikes! Too bad about that health insurance you don’t have, as you’d be able to talk about that with a therapist.
Shouldn’t have gambled your health on your ignorance of what insurance is and what the word “gambling” mean… ¯(ツ)_/¯
