Are sub 115 IQs simply unable to have a sound argument or discussion *without* committing some basic logical fallacies?

sub-115s don't even care about discussion they're more worried about celebrity drama and who wins the next sportsball game

On what basis do you presume that you're not sub 115IQ? What intellectual accomplishments have you achieved? Odds are pretty good that you're sub 115IQ. Are you sure that your baseless self assessment of yourself as unusually intelligent isn't merely a self flattering grandiose delusion?

Intelligence does not necessarily correlate with argumentmaxxing.
Anonymous at Mon, 6 May 2024 05:53:14 UTC No. 16161790
Yes and almost everyone up to IQ of 140 commit logical fallacies. Low IQ people are more likely to surrender once their fallacies are called out and rejected. Above average will switch to other fallacies, rhetorical guise, feels, and moralizing when rebuffed which makes engaging with them useless. It's better to just smile and agree with them unless you want to publicly embarrass them, at a steep cost of lifelong grunge holding resentment.

It probably depends of the personâs temperament. I feel like most people between 100 and 120 have too much pride and they are so opinionated nowadays so theyâll just nitpick, move goalposts, strawman, or use some other elementary fallacy to not admit that they lost. Theyâll do it until they get the last word, so if everything else fails, they feel like they won in their own heads.

Let's see how many logical fallacies OP is committing.
>BLACK-OR-WHITE
OP creates two false states and a magic boundary at 115 IQ where people below it all commit logical fallacies and people above it don't.
>FALSE CAUSE
OP assumes IQ is what causes someone to commit logical fallacies.
>BANDWAGON
OP uses IQ, a popular intelligence measurement, to substantiate his claim and make it valid.
>BEGGING THE QUESTION
OP already answers his own question by implying sub 115 IQ people are stupid and can't comprehend logical fallacies.
>THE FALLACY FALLACY
OP assumes that people committing logical fallacies makes their arguments unsound.
By your own definition you are sub 115 IQ.

Unless they have specific training, yes.
I don't think high schools teach the basic syllogisms (unless you take some philosophy class) and most people probably go through college without needing to construct sound arguments outside of math/philosophy(/maybe CS) majors.
What most people have is an intuitive understanding of soundness that is probably inaccurate for some cases or a working memory limitation that can't handle sufficiently long/complex arguments.
I think the more likely case is that real world issues/problems do not usually have complete/clean data so everyone tends to use unsound rhetoric to bridge the gaps to reach the conclusions they want to reach.
What you see deployed IRL may just reflect their rhetorical strategy instead of their soundness capability.
Bending the rules of logic may statistically be the smart choice if you can to get away with it enough.
If the cutoff for being able to spot the unsoundness is 115 IQ then you can get away with it ~85% of the time.

Because committing logical fallacies implies the capability of focusing on a single logical statement and arguing for / against it.

No, everyone has biases and is prone to committing fallacies in thought because humans are neither truth seeking machines or purely logos entities. Emotions can and will cloud judgement of anyone.

Hasty/faulty generalisation is a really common fallacy that people of all IQs are guilty of. You see it on 4chan, and anywhere on the internet really, constantly. It's fairly easy to avoid doing too, you just need to be conscious of it.

actual poster here
to me, it represents an absolute reddit-pilled disposition towards discourse
they think their taxonomy of falsehood actually matters
to show you what i'm talking about:
>Are sub 115 IQs simply unable to have a sound argument or discussion *without* committing some basic logical fallacies?
if you remove the hyperbolic phrasing and write simply, this has almost the exact same meaning as
>why are average people often blatantly wrong?*
which is an infantile question on its face
but because OP threw in some cultural connotation via his taxonomy of the world, he thinks he said something intelligent
in other words, i always see the term "logical fallacies" used in what are essentially autistic linguistic exhibitions and not actual discourse

Ok. I just saw this thread a few minutes ago
>>16162463
From the tweet of possibly 4 Indians, and perhaps his own personal experiences, the OP there is stating that Indians (i.e. all Indians) constantly brag about the difficulty of their exams. I myself have interacted with quite a number of Indians and have never heard them say such a thing, so it's clearly not true. And that OPs sample size to make such a claim is surely far too small. And that OP likely knows its an exaggeration really anyway, so to avoid the fallacy they should have said something like "Why do I see so many Indians bragging about difficult exams" or something like that, to remove the faulty generalisation that implies it's all Indians

It contains a blatant exaggeration, which in this case is a faulty generalisation. The person has a couple of examples of something occurring and is applying it to the population. I don't know how else to explain it. If you can't see it then you clearly don't know what a faulty generalisation is

ok but you could take a linguistic philosophical disposition that asserts that every word itself is a faulty generalisation.
like what is a generalisation? by explaining what it is to me, i can claim you are making a faulty generalisation about generalisations.
this is a partial reframing of / perspective on the ancient zen koan:
>shuzan held out his staff and said: "if you call this a staff, you reject its reality. if you do not, you ignore the fact. now what do you wish to call this?"
you are embracing the exact same "logical fallacy" assuming that a word is a perfect representation of some concept, in order to deduce that a series of such words is being purposefully exhibited as a perfect representation of a logical calculation, in order to disprove it.
the english language (or any natural language) is not a "formal language" using "formal grammar" in a mathematical sense.
the ideas of formal language and formal grammar are taught to beginners using simple english phrases showing a direct isomorphism to "the same" idea expressed in a formal language
but is it absolutely autistic to presume even simple sentences in natural english mean the same thing as their corollary in a formal language
and pointing out that they don't mean the same thing using your precious taxonomy of "logical fallacies" /usually/ doesn't mean anything either

There can be no straw man. Your post in its entirety:
>Again not applicable
Not applicable in this case is a conclusion of the argument again, made invalid because it is an appeal to history. The other possibility is that you intend to restate a previous comment which has two knock on effects:
First, spamming is against the rules and therefor you appended something to the text in order to bypass the filter.
Second, your word is meaningless and that makes you unethical swine.
I outright dismiss the latter because we are all men of great esteem, arguing in good faith; however, by asserting this is a strawman, you have refuted the charitable option and left us with only one other. As with all logical fallacies, you have left us in a self-referential paradox.
By admitting to such debasement, you have indicated that we should not pay attention to your words, but it is your very words that lead us to this conclusion. Ergo, despite whatever your argument may have been, I am right by contradiction.
I do like the inclusion of again at the end of this post, as it lets me know that you knew all of this and were just testing me out of mirth. Good game sir.
