Circular reasoning. You are basically arguing that for-profit companies never make mistakes, know everything,etc. Is that were true, disruption and startups wouldn't exist
- halJordan 3y agoIt only seems circular because you're being pointed back to the beginning of the argument, instead of the person breaking it down barney style for you to shift the goalposts.
- ClumsyPilot 3y agoTo me your post comes across as trying to draw a distinction between two different types of tautologies. Neither is a valid argument to begin with. The goalpost is formal logic, they do not shift, I am not shifting anything; Argument of a form ‘data X,Y,Z shows Spotify is priced correctly’ would be valid. ‘Spotify have priced correctly because they are <insert definition of Spotify>’ is not logically valid. Like in formal logic, it cannot be valid.
- imgabe 3y agoIf you are wondering if there is baking soda in a container, you could pour some vinegar in there. If there is no bubbling of carbon dioxide, then there was no baking soda. This is not circular logic, this is an observation that necessary evidence that would have accompanied the existence of something isn’t there, so the thing itself isn’t there.
