Or even NACA, or any contemporary aeronautics division.

2020-01-20 04:41:24 UTC  

funny you know what everyone in the world think

2020-01-20 04:41:26 UTC  

Name one that doesn't

2020-01-20 04:41:55 UTC  

its your belief

2020-01-20 04:41:58 UTC  

Asian here, can confirm they taught us that the earth is a globe

2020-01-20 04:42:01 UTC  

No, its a fact.

2020-01-20 04:42:03 UTC  

i dont know for sure

2020-01-20 04:42:06 UTC  

ok sure

2020-01-20 04:42:24 UTC  

Good, you agree

2020-01-20 04:42:32 UTC  

even if everyone believes a lie, it doesnt make it true

2020-01-20 04:42:48 UTC  

Then why are you arguing it

2020-01-20 04:42:51 UTC  

It sure doesn't, but it makes it far more likely

2020-01-20 04:42:52 UTC  

They teach the globe all across the plane :^)

2020-01-20 04:43:01 UTC  

no it doesnt

2020-01-20 04:43:07 UTC  

Yes it does

2020-01-20 04:43:10 UTC  

a belief doesnt make anything more likely

2020-01-20 04:43:28 UTC  

You're hurting youself too by arguing that

2020-01-20 04:43:33 UTC  

Wut

2020-01-20 04:43:36 UTC  

the popular belief is evidence but its weak evidence

2020-01-20 04:43:55 UTC  

The western has big influence over the rest of the world

2020-01-20 04:44:01 UTC  

Just an assumption

2020-01-20 04:44:02 UTC  

Yes it does

2020-01-20 04:44:10 UTC  

these days id argue the popular belief is evidence of the opposite is true\

2020-01-20 04:44:17 UTC  

Not always

2020-01-20 04:44:21 UTC  

That's not really how it works, evidently.

2020-01-20 04:44:31 UTC  

You are using a logical fallacy either way.

2020-01-20 04:44:33 UTC  

In the news, Maybe. But in science, not at all

2020-01-20 04:44:39 UTC  

It doesn’t matter what people believe

2020-01-20 04:44:39 UTC  

That's like... appeal to minority

2020-01-20 04:44:44 UTC  

If you assert 'all say X, therefore Y' or its opposite...

2020-01-20 04:44:48 UTC  

And affirmation based on a negative premise

2020-01-20 04:44:49 UTC  

Either way it is fallacious.

2020-01-20 04:45:14 UTC  

Evidently, it somewhat walks the line of an argument from ignorance, but not quite.

2020-01-20 04:45:28 UTC  

A implies B
Not A
Therefore
Not B

2020-01-20 04:45:28 UTC  

That's like the opposite of bandwagon arguemnt

2020-01-20 04:45:32 UTC  

The opposite of ad populum

2020-01-20 04:46:04 UTC  

@Riska being wrong isnt a falacy

2020-01-20 04:46:08 UTC  

Indeed it is.

2020-01-20 04:46:21 UTC  

And it still has the same logic of an ad populum fallacy.

2020-01-20 04:46:25 UTC  

Just...reversed.

2020-01-20 04:46:30 UTC  

Well you can determine how right or wrong a person is based on their fallacy
