The existence of the word "racism" itself proves that racism is true, because if it weren't, it would just be called lying

Actually it's a great argument, sorry.

No.

Truth is God.

darn, well, that argument failed!

it is my go to for neckbeard lolbertarian atheists. "When you argue against the existence of God, you first agree to the definition of the concept, which means, fundamentally., you accept it and simply rail against".

Its a terrible argument when I use it, and the 'racism must exist as there is a word for it' argument is just as bad, but I've not me an atheist who can come up with a good counter yet

I'm not gonna listen to your opinion on what is and isn't a terrible argument when you admit to using arguments you believe are terrible.

that kind of puerile, adolescent response is why your opinion means so little to others.

If I use a terrible argument, it is to see if the person I am teasing has the mental faculties to be worth speaking further with. If you can't destroy my weak argument, then why would I bother investing time in a good debate?

Why would I bother investing time in a debate with a guy who deliberately makes bad arguments?

i guess if you also can't show why they are bad arguments, then because it makes you look like a chump?

Also, follow the logic flow of this conversation. I compared the OP to my own bad argument, in order to demonstrate its lack of sense. Non-linear, oblique and low key humour, all wrapped up in a debate.

I guess erudition ain't your thang, bruh
