There's no way of objectively determining who is "correct" about a specific issue unless you are omniscient. Otherwise there is always the potential that you're unaware of some detail that invalidates your conclusion.
All that can be determined is who presented more evidence in their favor. And someone pivoting to personal smears is abandoning the call to provide evidence. --- ~ DH ~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

If someone posts more newsmax articles than you that doesnt mean they win. Someone engaging in dishonest tactics will also probably be insulted. That doesnt make them right. --- Hee Ho ...

But what about someone who just makes up lies and when that lie is exposed just makes new lies? At some point you have to bring up them being a habitual liar and thus that makes them non-credible. ... Copied to Clipboard!

One could debunk the Newsmax articles by finding contradictory reports from media outlets rated more credibly by neutral arbiters. There's no need to simply eject from the argument entirely.

When they fail to provide it the lie is dismissed. There isn't really a need to keep a tally, the one lie doesn't become any more false just because there were 10 lies beforehand. --- ~ DH ~ ...

This disregards the precedence of reputation. A person telling 11 lies in a row can be reliably dismissed. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard!

It means their credibility is shot and that it's a waste of time to keep humoring and platforming them. Even the actual courts have things like perjury and contempt of court to remove and punish people who have been found to be dishonest and disruptive. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Depends on the platform of the debate. Outside of an academic settings the "winner" of a debate is just whoever most people in the audience agree with. Because that's all a debate really is, selling your ideals to an audience. --- Lusa Cfaad Taydr ... Copied to Clipboard!

Perhaps if it was an official debate with moderators disqualifying people for resorting to being dishonest first. Because otherwise how else are you going to respond to people that just endlessly loop "why"s or insist "because I say so" and other forms of troll logic other than just calling them out as trolls, liars, hypocrites etc. Like one could just insist that the sky is purple and that there's nothing wrong with lying. Now if the personal attacks aren't related at all to the argument like saying someone enjoys horizontal drinking glasses in an EVO debate that's generally a good indicator. I think this makes a bit more sense, if you need to pick something. --- https://m.youtube.com/TheYoungTurks/videos https://m.youtube.com/SamSeder https://RightWingWatch.org https://reddit.com/r/BreadTube http://fb.me/OccupyDemocrats ...

Hard disagree. Someone can both be wrong and also be a piece of shit. Same with someone being wrong but being a good person. Or being right and being a dick about it.
Ad hominem is weak for debate purposes but it has little to do with actual debating positions. --- https://i.ibb.co/2vRbyC0/Rosa-6.png "Friends don't let friends watch The Big Bang Theory" - mogar002 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Isn't that argumentum ad populum tho? Falla ious arguments of course don't make one wrong. Merely unjustified. A logical argument is about guaranteeing you get from point A to conclusion B 100% of the time. --- https://m.youtube.com/TheYoungTurks/videos https://m.youtube.com/SamSeder https://RightWingWatch.org https://reddit.com/r/BreadTube http://fb.me/OccupyDemocrats ...

Depends on what we consider "winning". Is it the person with the best argument from a logical standpoint, or the person who convinces more people?
If it's the latter, people often "win" arguments by insulting the other person. --- I have nothing else to say ... Copied to Clipboard!

You're missing something.
Half the time I'm insulting someone it's because the topic isn't up for debate and I'm not especially interested in humoring bigotry.
