Well said sir

All this is bogus...

Hello! I will be creating a presentation on teaching Argumentative essays to middle school students, and I would like to borrow this idea. I want to tweak it and streamline it using the terminology we use at our district, but I wanted to reach out about citing you and permissions. Thank you!

Hey, is it possible for you to look over a minmupp I made for you to find errors?

Thanks dude your video helped me

Is saying "you're entitled to your opinion" the same as saying "that's just your opinion"?

Why do you only want 2 co-premises? Why do you place an arbitrary limit on co-premises?

Is anyone developing a tool to automate argument mapping? The maps are easy to understand, but difficult to make.

so helpful

Next time im going to win a arguement to my religious friend because of this

Brilliant! Thank you for sharing!

Cool, thanks for this

OMG thank god you have made this video - this is really helping me!! BUT I still need another video on this, explaining more :( I still need more understanding!

Thanks Nick. Was waiting for new maps :-)

Thank you so much..nice explanation..

This saved me from bombing a college paper, thank you!

Hope to have more weekly maps in 2022...please

Well done!

The small town I'm from in the middle of nowhere, Facebook groups are great for allowing people to stay in touch. There are drawbacks as well, for example folks can get needlessly nasty from a local politics standpoint.

Great video Nate. Love your content and appreciate your analysis. Liked your joke about following you on FB!! What app are you using for moving your picture around?

Nice, I look forward to these weekly maps. A great channel.

On top of this, humans have simply managed to form this controversy themselves.

Wet doesn’t naturally occur. Wet is an adjective developed within the human mind as a convenience to describe some that has water on it. Something can’t be naturally wet because without humans the describing word “wet” would not exist. And Without the human logic or convenience of that word. Water isn’t wet. So to every other species water doesn’t exist and so doesn’t the term “wet.” So every other species of animal, alien life form, anything other than human disagree with you’re logic. In conclusion the thing we all know as water isn’t naturally wet. In addition to my conclusion, without the human brain the concept or study of water, and even water itself doesn’t exist. Wet isn’t naturally occurring therefore water can’t be wet unless you manipulate the physics. Even then me saying that implies I believe water isn’t wet. Which, then again proves my entire argument.

Looking forward to new vids please

It is

Thank you, now I know why I always miss the point of my reading. this was the missing link without realizing it.

Whoah! First to view, first to comment! Great lesson, Nate! I'm using some of these videos to review good argument structure and teach new Ethics Bowlers what critical thinking looks like. Your site and these videos are excellent tools. Keep up the great work.

Hi! what software is it (for the mind mapping)?

By design, any “Critical Theory,” (CT) purposefully instills psychopathology. To be a CT, by definition, demands from its followers: activism. They must hold to the idea that “all systems,” all “whatever’s” are broken and need to be dismantled, destroyed. Most of “The Woke,” are not aware of, Horkheimer, Adorno, Marcus, who derived Critical Theory as derivative from Carl Marx‘s original ideas. These authors were shocked that the communist revolutions Marx predicted were not happening. The conclusion: Culture. Culture held people together more than race, class, or gender. But the brilliant essence, central to the theory, the great gotcha, of “Critical Theory,” is that it does not seek to address or remedy problems, as problems cannot be solved without tearing it all down. Thus, we see constant, unfixable, and unsolvable, criticism all the time. This will break even the most durable of human tolerance, and eventually violence will result. Destruction and division is the goal. Once the pathology is created, it is on autopilot. The god of critical theory is the narcissistic victim, and the devil is any system in which that victim resides. Most, if not all, “Woke,” adherents simply could not face a world where they are not victims.

the states bills do not ban critical race theory... they ban discrimination based on color or gender or immutable characteristics.... basically, judging people on group identity instead of their individual character or merit. in practice, especially in the vulgarized practices by kendi or crenhsaw are the worst marxism and nazism combined.

I think you are kind of taking Center Right position. You are definitely representing some kind of Centrist's Views on CRT. Also the arguments are changing. At the beginning the Left would say that nobody is teaching CRT in Schools, but the argument have shifted to "It's about history". And now I see arguments that anti-CRT are just Nazis. I am kind of anti-CRT. But it's not even about CRT for me. I am arguing against Critical Theory in general. I am blaming CRT for the fall of standards. If you are interested, here are 3 videos I think describe CRT well: 1. "Ryan Chapman" has a good review of the popular CRT books. 2. "Millenial Gentlemen" has an interesting historical take on CRT: "The True Origins of Critical Race Theory & Anti-Racism Training" 3. KZbin "documentary" from "Progressives Today": "White Privilege Conference 2014". * 4. Also a kind of funny old video on Debate Association (CEDA) from "Internet Aristocrat": "Ever Forward Towards Oblivion - CEDA & The Death of Standards". Good luck with the project. I hope you do well.

I'm sorry, this is all bullshit. their is no such thing as "critical race theory" its seems like a title you all created to justify hiding the truth. Teach all the children, all the truth, all the time. Anything else is bullshit.

So is asking "what is your concept of family" a normative or empirical statement ?

Informative.

Thanks Nate. For me, co-premises are still the most tricky. Keeping it simple so I don't violate any rules haha 😅😅

There is a difference in saying that's your opinion and saying that its untrue
