I am having a discussion on another forum, and I called a guy out on the fact that he obviously knows nothing about economics, and this was his response:

h ttp:\www.libertylounge.net/forums/floor/

"SERIOUSLY respond to my valid points or STFU. Don’t reply with questions about me never having an economics class or studying Austrian economics, I mean WTF? This is a forum of mostly lay people who are interested in politics. You either post a counter argument and support your opinion or don’t post at all, no need to make people feel stupid or deflect an argument with more questions about someone’s education. If you don’t want to take the time to explain your posts, then don’t post.

I’m not asking you to admit you’re full of shit, you can simply ignore the post and move on if indeed you are full of shit, don’t post this BS deflection when you have no way to defend your own posts."

respond to his points or STFU. credentialism is retarded.

if his points are stupid then point out the logical fallacies and walk away. you just look like an idiot doing anything else.

Wow, someone just as irrational as that guy.

No, credentialism is a logical fallacy Spideynw. To win logically you have to respond to his points and show where he is wrong and you are right, meaning you both present your arguments and rebuttals. Anything else is illogical and emotional.

{I did not read the thread you referenced in your first post, so I may be missing your point. But, I believe you can never sway people by calling them idiots.}

He needs an attitude adjustment.

Argumentum ad verecundium.
