if you were arguing about something, that means you use reasoning and evidence
That's just logos
the degree just helps show that you understand the evidence you are using
since you studied it
Effective arguments often contain elements of all 3 depending on the argument and context
To give an actual example
I've debated with "race realists" and I've sourced anthropologist studies, that would be dependant on credibility, that's not the same as an appeal to authority
That's not the same as validating yourself by saying you have a degree in something
If I myself said I have a degree in anthropology then it'd be an appeal to authority
When you argue with someone A LOT of the times they link to a trusted or "trusted" source and tell you that your opinion is wrong because that source has authority and you're just some rando on the interwebs
You can't credit yourself
Yah because people on the internet can be arrogant af
I think that a lot of the times people will disregard what you're saying if you don't appeal to authority
generally an authority becomes trusted when other people validate their findings?
Appeal to authority is different from have an established authority on a subject
>race realism
Are there biological differences between races? Yes. Otherwise we wouldn’t have different skin colours. It’s like the difference between a Husky and a German Shepard
Do they mean fucking anything at all beyond medical issues? I think fucking not.
Nobody has any authority on a subject in an argument
I think it depends on the context.
If they are like "you're wrong cause I have a degree" then yeah. It's retarded.
Race realism is just a tool used for a white nationalist narrative
Are you talking about IQ averages?
Haha
Retards
According to that it's the Asians and the jews that have the highest IQs
How is it white supremacy?
Goo goo iq gaga race goo goo gaga
?
A common example I see in media is that someone will be talking about something like biology. Someone says that there is a physical dichotomy in the human species. So the person replying says, "Well you don't have a B.S. in Biology therefore your argument is not valid."

Niggas who reference fallacies incorrectly should be shot
It's the biggest flop of all time
@musty bussy I have a feeling it’s the culture that the race subscribes to more than the race itself. Trust me, i know some pretty moronic asians.
@#2771 doesn't understand rhetoric enough to be trusted because he's demonstrated that he lacks fundamental basics of rhetoric. That's not an appeal to authority

Bruh I know what logical fallacies are
I was replying to dani
Tf are you replying to
I took debate and speech I know the little babby shit
Establishing ethos by having legitimate authority on a subject is a fundamental basic in rhetoric.(Ethos,Pathos,Logos) It's not the same as an appeal to authority
Yeah but that's what it says though?
It's an AVERAGE
It doesn't mean that all Asians are smart.
But tbh I think there's more than IQ from my experience. It's the way you think too. I know people with tested high IQs that are dumb as hell and low IQ people who are smart. The mentality seems pretty important too Ngl.
