Re: Arguments you hate

I really hate "you got mad/cried/otherwise showed emotion, therefore you lose!"

I guess the basis for this COULD be that you shouldn't form opinions based on emotion rather than logic, but this argument still doesn't make sense because expressing emotion isn't the same thing as making an argument based on emotion. You can make an argument based on your emotions and stay perfectly calm while arguing it or get upset while arguing something totally logical.

But usually, I get the impression that the people using this argument are just operating according to some "rule" that if someone "gets to you" you lose. Like a staring contest with emotions. And it doesn't make sense, because whether you can make someone mad or make someone cry has nothing to do with whether or not you are right.

I've seen people go as far as arguing that if you spend too much energy on something and "care about it too much" you "lose" even if you are trying to argue all their (stupid) points.

I dunno it just seems like the argument trotted out if they have no actual argument. "At least I don't care so much about this"

Ah, yes, the "Oh, wow, look how overinvested you are" accusation.

My view on that is "if you really don't care about this argument, why are you asking these questions/ arguments and wasting both our time?"

When they flat out admit they don't care about the whole things I figure I might as well stop bothering.

I see this so much among anti-feminists and opponents of BLM. To compound it, they assume everyone who disagrees with them has no sense of humor, so when someone they don't like makes a joke, they take it seriously and think the person is exaggerating because they care too much. And of course they never care, no matter how much time and energy they expend arguing!
