RE: 'tu quoque' am I iwrong?
Lion; my post (number 3) this thread sets out the context.

In the meantime, peace has broken out between Xouper and me.

What a load of verbose shit. 23 words (24 if I seperate the contraction It's) that communicate absolutely nothing.

'which is equally as true as that to which it stands in relation'????? What the fuck does this mean?

I have a feeling that my explanation would be a struggle for you as well.

I'm (I am) sorry for your loss.

No, it means that you can't even explain the meaning of your business speak, buzzword laden, weasel word sentence.

How would YOU know what it explains?

You didnt (did not) even understand the first post.

Your expertise seems to lay in counting the number of words....

I didn't (and still don't) know what it explained. It was meaningless drivel, which is why I asked the question. The fact that in two subsequent posts you can't explain it proves my initial point.

It's OK if you dont want to go into it in more detail.
Never mind.
I read the original - in full.

RE: 'tu quoque' am I iwrong?



Note that the latin 'tu quoque' means 'you, too,' or 'you, also.' If the accusation is a straightforward accusation of hypocrisy, in which the claim is one of inconsistent behavior, then the accusation does not actually involve a second, and therefore it is not strictly speaking a tu quoque fallacy because it doesn't have the appropriate logical structure. (I think. Read)
