One man's inability to argue is another man's argumentation.
You can call it whatever you want, if you think being right equates to arguing well then you have a lot to learn.
@ETBrooD Considering this has ***quite literally*** just devolved into you pretending to be virtuous while trying to attack my character, and considering we're not even having an actual argument outside of this extended fart snuffing ad hom of yours, I'm going to make the same observation again; you're too obnoxious for me to continue talking to and I have better things to do.
Also,

Doesn't mean I have to participate

You have yet to show me where I've "argued badly". How about you show me which fallacies I committed? Bet you can't, because in reality I'm perfectly good at arguing and you're just a fart-huffing asshole who dropped in to *attempt* at attacking my character for no reason other than that you believe yourself to be a good person.
"MUHHHH VIRTUEEEEE WAAAAA"
I'm not trying to be virtuous, I just saw you arguing very poorly and I'm pointing it out.
The two of us have had an argument before, too, if you remember. And that time it went similarly, where I demonstrated that your numbers were highly unrealistic and you had absolutely no rebuttal to offer, you just got angry.
That's why I seem to be "attacking your character". Yeah if someone has a pattern of behavior, I point it out.
You posted a quote from Nietzsche that was misunderstood as being your own argument. Then you tried to mock Hex for not noticing that it's not your own personal take but a quote.
I'd agree with Hex that it can easily be overlooked that it was a quote.
You made such a big deal out of that little mistake, instead of arguing honestly and just acknowledging that this sort of oversight can happen to someone.
Like, I once made a similar mistake and had a bit of a fight with Ford over what I thought he had said. I acknowledged my mistake, we got over it. Mistakes happen.

@ETBrooD I don't remember you really, tbh. Was it about the coronavirus? I do get pissed off at "flu bros" due to how ***dangerous and despicable*** denialism surrounding this situation obviously is.
Also, if it was based on my rundown of the coronavirus figures, no those numbers aren't unrealistic at all and it's very likely that I didn't make a rebuttal because none was required. Here's the post again if you'd like to review:

Give am example of my alleged "poor argumentation"
You made a claim about closed border stopping the virus after the virus had already entered the country
???
I think you're confused
Hm. Maybe I am, you changed your nickname recently so I could mistake you for someone else
I added, the IQ thing to mock David, so did a few other people. That's probably why.
@ETBrooD I'm way more interested in seeing what you think of my initial OP than I am in continuing this conversation about your alleged virtue and my blatant and course debating habits. Unlike Hex you obviously aren't an imbecile.
Not the Nietzsche quote
If you have any sort of formal education on biology you're basically guaranteed to know more than I do
Also, one final note I'd like to point out, just because a person is blatant and coarse when they argue doesn't mean they are bad at arguing. If you're going to call somebody "bad at arguing" you should at least give a realistic example of how. Considering there wasn't even am actual argument here? Literally just hex ad homming me fore no reason and me dismissing him? It seems like a somewhat ridiculous thing to say. @ETBrooD
Which is probably why you refuse to expound
I only care about the Nietzsche quote
The debate before I had no interest in reading, I only skimmed over it
Genetics is about as far removed from my interests as a frog is from the moon
Apparently quoting a philosopher to back up an opinion is bad now? <:WaitWhatArmy:590858815189024778>
Alright man, don't explain then. Whatever.
I didn't say that, I just think it's understandable that Hex overlooked that it was a quote
He only overlooked it because he didn't look at (all of) it.
Not my fault.
Well I don't blame him for that, it's a terribly annoying quote to read that makes me think it's a waste of time
Cool opinion, I don't care. If he didn't want to read it and address what it was saying then maybe he shouldn't have participated in the conversation at all.
You know what's really funny about this entire situation? Being compared to nietzsche is actually a confidence boost. This idiot made my day by trying to ad hom me and failing.
<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>
I addressed the Nietzsche quote specifically
It's OK Phaed doesn't know anything about genetics either.....
So now you're trying to paint this as something it isn't, again? Because you can't hold a debate without trying to discredit your opposition? I literally don't care about genetics, not one bit. That's all it is.
@Jym Get a biologist in here to debate him, I love seeing huge egos getting rekt
In all honesty, any confusion about the Nietzsche quote is your fault to begin with @phadreus. You forget to put quotations around it and not till the very end is there anything to indicate that it is, in fact, a Nietzsche quote instead of just a random man who struggles with simplifying their own mental diarrhea into something easy to read and digest. On a side note, that mental diarrhea is a problem I see with most philosophers which irritates me to no end. I'm far too fond of the simple and straightforward to deal with that verbose, paper-colored slime.
