Explaining the joke:
"Begging the question" is an expression that properly means "assuming the conclusion," i.e. circular reasoning.
However, the comment above deliberately uses the incorrect meaning "raising the question."
- Dylan16807 3y agoGood explanation except for the words "proper" and "incorrect".
- happyraul 3y agoThe irony is that we can't be sure of that, since "proper" and "incorrect" may mean something else.
