What's really funny is how often Circular Logic works out to be correct in some form. Take, for example, the job Fry ends up actually doing. Circular logic often emerges because start points and end points of logical series can be muddy! As a result, the conclusion suggested by circular thinking can be accurate if the "circle is entered" so to speak . . . If there is a strong series component to circular logic, the statement may prove out even if it is obviously flawed, because the true situational dynamics may remain a mystery.
Does Fry become a delivery boy because he is naturally talented at doing it? Or is it that people with that task to do will naturally assess his abilities as the proper quality, and petition him the job? Is it simply his destiny? The details of the connections elude, but the results are unwavering! Could Fry have truly held any other job? Beware the tempting power of Circular Logic!
I don't think this qualifies as a fallacy because she's just informing him of circumstance rather than arguing her position. "If you don't submit you will be killed, I don't make the rules"
I still don't get it somehow. Edit: I'm more confused now, thanks to the reply section. 2nd edit: I did not have a good understanding of English when I made this comment, now I understand, thanks :D
An example would be: Subject A:"We've hired the best hair dressers in the world." Subject B asks: "What makes them the best?" A: "Because they work here and we only hire the best."
Kinda tricky example if you're new to it. "the bible is true because the bible says its true" is a very good example of circular reasoning. But also kinda fits "begging the question" 😊
@@heavymeddle28 circular reasoning and begging the question are very similar fallacies in a way, such arguments have the flaw of defining themselves as true , the equivalent of "because I said so"

When people say " It is what it is " is that circular reasoning?
@@101acidrider Good question. I would say yes, unless it's something that truly can't be changed.

The key to success is circular reasoning, because circular reasoning is the key.
But only if the circle is "entered".
just repeat the same like an easy ai robot
That's technically correct, the best kind of correct.
Lela asserts that Fry must perform the job assigned “delivery boy” because the machine scientifically deduced that it was the job best suited for Fry.
Circular reasoning serves as a way to shut down conversation about a topic.

A little more time and you will discover what axiom means.

Don't you worry about circular reasoning. Let me worry about blank
Could you ever use both circular reasoning and the bandwagon fallacy simultaneously?
Yesterday, was the day before today.
Nah, I disagree. She asserts Fry must be a delivery boy because that is what he's best at. That reasoning isn't circular at all.
Thank you for the video.

Its like saying you must do something because you have to do it.
