We've got an entire thread of reading material on this. Hope you find something in there you're willing to click on.
Ah, I see you all planned some astroturfing in advance. Very credible.
having sources is astroturfing, not having sources is evidence of being correct. of course.
Nah, it just comes up a lot. No worries
Fucking daily. It's infuriating. It's so frustrating. Why are they obsessed with a completely absurd fantasy about this one specific incident? Catholics aren't this obsessive with the crucifixion.
Can you explain what is the difference between astroturfing and providing sources and evidence?
Jesus christ. I wish you were a bot. Bots actually have an excuse for being unable to exceed their programming.
ad hominem
Aw fuck oh shit oh fuck
calling ad hominem when someone isn't even making an argument is
Ah, you're right, they're just throwing insults to no real point or purpose beyond some delusional sense of superiority.
You fuckers literally cannot fucking help yourself holy shit.
Not only is fallacy reffing stupid, it's not even an example of ad hominem, it's just an insult.
Ad hominem: "You're wrong because you're a doo doo head."
Not ad hominem: "You're a doo doo head and you're wrong."
Also not ad hominem: "You're a doo doo head because you're wrong."
It seems you're right, this behavior is of lower quality than even abusive ad hominem, and probably just fits in the "name calling" base of the hierarchy. Lowest of the low. There's a lot of examples of such behavior in this thread.
Complaining about "fallacy reffing" is very self serving when the fallacy is on your side. It pretty much demonstrates that no one here is capable of having a debate in good faith.

Ad hominem? More like yourmominem.

Not everyone takes Western medias depiction of things as fact, I mean if you werent a complete dipshit the least you could do is try to composite a narrative from Chinese and Western sources instead of taking the #1 Geopolitical enemies word for it and countless other things it has lied about.
You've seen first hand how shitty American government and it's goons are to it's own people why do you think they wouldn't lie about their main adversary?

No, but we do have reading groups, encourage each other to expand our knowledge, and post useful and interesting links to each other if they're interested. You know, like most people do, like a community does.
Also: imagine being proud deliberate ignorance.
Even if a corporation paid for that, a list of links would still not qualify as astroturfing
