    A critical thinking series on one of the channels least likely to have an audience that needs it. Somebody please put these video links in the comments sections of Fox News, Alex Jones, TYT and Jimmy Dore show.

    • @nidavelliir

    • @LossOfEternal
      @LossOfEternal 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      David is independent now. This show left the TYT network years ago.
      th-cam.com/video/92bgSRd9lY8/w-d-xo.html
      And Jordan Chariton was fired from TYT last year. Your knowledge of TYT is very suspect. You seem to be unaware of many things that someone that actually hates that channel is well aware of. TYT is very comparable to Fox News. Both channels are filled with ideologues that twist the facts to fit their agenda and ignore stories that would refute their preconceived notions. I was subscribed to TYT for nearly a decade. I've seen Jimmy Dore spit on Alex Jones' face and not lose his job afterwards. I've seen the show sell out to AJ+. I've seen Cenk purposefully misrepresent Sam Harris on multiple occasions. I've seen Cenk and Ana have mental breakdowns when people disagree with them. That channel is not what you think it is. I suggest you stay unsubscribed from them.

      sorry jimmy dore does that unlike david pakman and the others jimmy actually has videos where he opened up dictionaries and read from them
      alex jones doesnt even believe in the insanity he spews as david has told us
      this is called reading the dictionary the way jimmy does instead of making up your own definitions

    • @MiqelDotCom
      @MiqelDotCom 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ^ just because Jimmy Dore read from a dictionary on his show does not imply he used the information in a valid and sound manner. I can't even watch his show because it's fallacy after fallacy, and the 2 people that are his seeming co-hosts contribute nothing of substance and appear more like sycophants. It's just a weird scene all around.

    • @Tenchigumi
      @Tenchigumi 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@MiqelDotCom Yeah, there's actually a term for that: the "Appeal to Definition" fallacy. Critical thinking requires broader context that dictionaries can't always provide. In addition, definitions can (and do) change repeatedly over time, and words often have multiple definitions with entirely different applications (see: "erection"). It's one of the more ironic things I see in comments and posts: when someone quotes a dictionary as an authority in a debate, there's a fair chance they don't actually have a comprehensive understanding of the word in question.

      KC I'm talking about the series. I've already known about deductive arguments from the prep LSAT book and most of the stuff David has already talked about in his critical thinking mini series is mentioned on the LSAT prep books. I'm just happy he's circulating this onto TH-cam for people to learn from.

      @Tr3v0rr96 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      KC as for the gun fetish argument, there's a legitimate difference between regular gun owners, and overly zealous NRA members. To call it an ad hominem in some cases could be warranted, but often that is not the case.

      @jtrinipapi 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is actually a high school college preparatory level course well it seems extremely basic because David Packman is doing a great job explaining watch the same topic with the same explanations taught by a different person it will confuse the shit out of you and it’s only David being very clear that makes it simple to understand this should be understood and known by every adult American
      Bar Nunn you should not be able to vote or run for office if you do not know basic understandings like critical thinking however I bet 90% of Americans don’t know the critical thinking or thinking logically is actually studied and Part of a people often ramble and say well done that’s just logical and they don’t even have the slightest idea of what logical thinking is how to go about it or what it really means logic to one person is the assumption that every basic person should understand that but they don’t actually know what it takes to be logical or what makes something logical critical thinking is more in depth than elementary level education however I do hear your point in that it is definitely a necessity should be required and it should be taught at an early enough age to where if you don’t understand it you still have time in middle school or high school to learn about it more ask more questions see the average student doesn’t realize that having a good day in school is not simply going to school and getting good grades a good day in school is what was the best question that you asked today and every day you should try harder and harder to ask a better question because lots of people don’t askAnd that’s because they’re either shy or embarrassed to admit that they don’t know something but the smartest man in the room knows that they don’t know everything and so they’re constantly asking questions so that they can learn in the better the question the more that you can learn

    I have a technical query. Following Aristotle's is correspondence truth theory, to say something is true means:
    1. You have a claim
    2. You have a standard or an "ideal case" for what you want to get from that claim
    3. You compare the two things and VALIDATE your claim.
    i.e. Truth or Soundness itself is a type of Validation, not something separate from it... am I mistaken here?

    I think you missed the first part of the series. You state in this video #2 that we are going to go over something we have already discussed--except that you just introduced the entire concept of critical thinking in the first video--we didn't discuss any of the topics you give us a refresher on in this video. What I am suggesting is that this video should follow a video where you introduce deductive arguments or you should edit the beginning and just introduce them here. Before this video (which you claim is a recap of our previous discussion), you only introduced the scope of this series. Perhaps you originally intended to produce an Intro and then Video 1, but only produced the Intro (as video 1 in the series.) lol

      It's not an Ad Hominem. He's stating his opinion. It is not part of an argument.

      P1: White Privilege describes advantages enjoyed, on average, by those with visibly white skin in a given social context.
      P2: In America, those who do not have white skin are dealing with more discrimination in the CJS, infrastructure and housing, employment, income, ecology, etc. on average.
      Valid & Sound Conclusion:
      In America, White Privilege as a concept accurately describes several dimensions of life.
