NIHILISM EVERYWHERE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

ooh boy you've attracted nihilist thought

Except a word without meaning is just a series of sounds.

The only way a definition can be the premise of an argument is if you sit down prior to tue argument and agree on a specific definition

So you're fucking retarded. You're misusing the logical fallacy.

Anything else is fallacious

exactly

Just because it can be wrong doesn't mean it is always wrong.

You're really bad at thinking , phad.

It's always wrong

Absolutism is a position of small minds

The only time it's acceptable is if the other person specifically agrees to it

That sounds less like an argument and more like communism.

An appeal to definition is not the same as the basis of language which is common understanding of the meaning of a word.

I didn't say it was

Appeal to definition is pretending a definition can be a premise of an argument

Your stance of demanding that Eden abide by your definition of altruism is an example of appeal to definition.

definitions should be obvious to each participant beforehand, and if they are not, should only be resolved in favour of one participant. if the definition proposed is meaningless or simply not commonly accepted, the participant is thrown from a cliff. that's how fucking mad I am at semantics ruining the fields of academia that should've saved the last few decades.

It almost never can be

Whereas the group here agree with the common vernacular

You're the odd man out

And so you fall back on appealing to your definition.

That's what the basis of what you linked is

Not that all appeals are wrong, it's that appealing for the sake of appealing is wrong, which is what you, not Eden, did.

Is this nsfw

He had tonclarify where he is coming from.

@Greasy Definitions simply should be agreed on your not argued at all

You demanded he see it your way, and he refused.

Like I said, you can't even hold a philosophical debate without citing arbitration by anonymous entities.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

MY STOCKS

Nothing is true, everything is permitted, assassanal creed

You can talk about two people's understanding of a word and contrast those understandings, but arguing a definition in the middle of a different argument is an obvious fallacy

Which means the basis of your arguments are all garbage.

You refuse to bend

And the majority here already has determined you're wrong.
