Wrong. You left a gaping hole in your argument over and over. As I explained, you chose a c, but you did not prove that the lack of c in B necessarily proved the parallel was faulty
replied 1993d
Scale, and public vs private. B is an individual case, while A is on a larger scale. Private vs public ridership. Which aspects confuse you so I can deal with how they apply.
replied 1993d
They all are attempts to confuse the issue. You can let random people into your country or into your family. They may become "integrated" or not. You have no way of telling.
replied 1993d
Still, all those "aspects" are wrong. You can explain them, and I can pick apart your attempts. It should be easy enough.
replied 1993d
Try and do so then
You refuse to refute the ideas. You just keep asserting they are wrong. I am the only one backing what I say with an argument.
replied 1993d
I refuse to make your argument for you and then refute. Is it too much to ask to make a real case for how these "aspects" play out in real life to a difference before I refute?
replied 1993d
I made my arguments. Now refute them. If not then you are incapable.
replied 1993d
So you did not claim above that you could go more in detail on them? Your sentences are botched, not easy to know what you really are trying to say
replied 1993d
Consider I have had to repeat it to you multiple times you should understand the reasons given by now.
replied 1993d
Ah, back to repeating. You have not "had to" repeat anything. You have been obnoxious enough to keep repeating after I asked you not to. There are no reasons, you are full of hot air
replied 1993d
You say not to repeat and then ask again for the how those are dissimilar on ways hat make the comparisons meaningless, which makes me repeat the reasons. You cant refute the reasons.
replied 1993d
No, I asked specifically for explanation of HOW your platitudes work in real life to make a difference to my parallel. WITHOUT repetition of the platitudes. You know this
replied 1993d
Yes, and you failed to respond.
replied 1993d
OK, exactly where did you do what I say I asked for here, with me failing to respond?
replied 1993d
When I gave a list of the dissimilar qualities that make comparing those two fall apart on this particular issue. You can either say why those dissimilar qualities dont matter or not.
replied 1992d
OK, so you didn't. You repeated the old things again. You keep avoiding my ABc argument and the red/blue jackets parallel. It is up to you to show it matters first.
replied 1992d
I already explained how your ABc argument was wrong, and corrected it for you. I explained how the quality c was exactly how the two were dissimilar.
replied 1993d
OK, now you are just lying
replied 1993d
Sure... even if you dont like the examples I have given, you should at least try to respond to them. If not it just shows you can not.
replied 1993d
You know that this does not follow. There could be many reasons why I choose not to play your games. To try to score cheap points like that is even more intellectual dishonesty.
replied 1993d
The only intellectual dishonesty is coming from you. You try to claim my arguments are in a different form, and attack that form. Strawman much?
replied 1993d
It might have been, if you were right about that assertion. Point out where I did that in detail. Not vague arm waving. Where exactly did I say what.
replied 1992d
Repeating yourself.
replied 1992d
Since you are probably going to object to that: I can say "Airplanes can't fly because the sky is blue". That is not an argument, I would need to show why the blueness matters
replied 1992d
I did explain why they matter. It explained which qualities were disimilar and how it makes your comparison break down. How much do you need it spoon fed to you?
replied 1993d
All the way to where you get off the platitudes and give an argument.
replied 1993d
I gave a list of disimilar qualities. I have spoon fed the argument to you.
replied 1993d
Yes, you gave me a list of platitudes. No, that is not spoon feeding. It is intellectually dishonest conversation. And I did explain why this is so.
replied 1993d
You gave a strawman of why you think it is so. You have not, because you can not, actually refute why those disimilar qualities make your comparison fail.
replied 1993d
It is your job to show how they make the comparison fail, not mine.
replied 1992d
I did. Quit repeating yourself.
replied 1992d
What you do is indicate it is up to me to fill in the blanks (how blueness messes up air travel) and then refute. This is preposterous.
replied 1992d
And no, it is not sufficient to say "Well, not only is the sky blue, the forest has snakes too". You keep doing this. Platitudes like "scale" are not enlightening to me.
replied 1992d
If instead I were to say "when the sky is blue, the atmosphere gets super hot, so the wings of the plane melt and fall off", then I would have at least a real (albeit poor) argument
replied 1992d
You were on the right track a bit with the aging population argument, except of course you missed that the same could be used for families. At least that was an attempt.
replied 1992d
You should try comparing to a similar style of argument. Your long example has nothing to do with the argument I gave at all.
replied 1993d
You keep making this unfounded assertions. They always show to be wrong when we investigate them. Then you go on to new ones. I think you actually manage to fool yourself with this.
replied 1993d
To use your formula, I explained how your comparison of A and B broke down due to factors c, d, e, and f were disimilar, and it is those qualities that matter when comparing A and B.
replied 1993d
I have not gone on to k
New ones. Funny because you said I was repeating them before. I'm still waiting for any attempt to show why the disimilar qualities I gave were wrong.
replied 1993d
And you might get one, once you show they are relevant.
replied 1992d
Oh I have. Many times. Since you cant refute them though you pretend they didn't happen. I get it. You cant back up your words.
replied 1993d
I did refute it. c, d, e ...k, they are all of the form of my new airplane argument platitudes. It does not matter how many platitudes you add, they are still just platitudes.
replied 1993d
They are not in the form of your airplane argument at all actually. You have yet to actually refute the points. You are just hand waving them away by misinterpreting them.
replied 1993d
OK, if you had a good argument, you would make that one, and stick to it. But never mind that. Pick one here and now and present it properly.
replied 1992d
Quit repeating yourself.
replied 1992d
Pick your best argument and repeat it here. As if you mean it.
replied 1993d
But the reason is clear enough. You tried to show how it did not make sense, and failed, and now you instead try to pretend there is an argument there that you will not tell me about
replied 1993d
Maybe you missed my argument that "scale" is not an argument. You must explain how scale plays a role. Hence my ABc argument, which you seem to have forgotten.
replied 1993d
We did get to why scale matters actually. When you talked about letting a bump in your home, and I said it wouldn't matter if your home had millions of people already.
replied 1993d
If I don't get you to make the argument first, you will change your stance after the fact and pretend that the new stance was your stance all along, as you have shown willing to do
replied 1993d
They may help your economy or they may break it. They may help you when you get old, or they may rob you blind. You just don't know. You act as if there is certainty they will be good
replied 1993d
Also, the repetition is still impolite.
