Re: [Marxism] Signs of Brainwashing
Dear Joaquín,
I find myself unable to get your point. Yes, I let you to be "the first to
guess"; but what is the use of your "guess"? You have not even touched to
the point at issue. The point at issue is: What is Brainwashing? Whether the
subject of Brainwashing or Brain-muddling is worthy of discussion? You have
preferred to avoid the issue. You have not preferred to offer any comments
on the contents of the Article. Thus, you have committed the logical
fallacy, for the reasons best known to you; the fallacy, which is known as
argumentum ad hominem. In other words, let me say that you have appealed to
personal considerations rather than to logic or reason. Now, I deem it fit
and proper to post a link to argumentum ad hominem so that you may be again
"the first to guess" whether it is "from the last century" or otherwise; and
that it is also a sign of brainwashing or brain-muddling?
