A few weeks ago, I encountered the word "sophistry": A deliberately invalid argument displaying ingenuity in reasoning in the hope of deceiving someone.
Now, everything my local Traffic Engineer ever said is hitting differently. For that matter, ... <gestures broadly at everything>

Arguing with the devil never does any of us any good.
He has had 5,000 years of practice.
He knows all the weak spots.

There's nothing wrong with simplicity, but as some people dislike that, make a complex version of your argument to convince people. #syp&etus #sophistry

I can't really fault this. #Metaphysics #Sophistry #DnD
In accordance with Trump's ego-centric world view, where nobody is real, everything is fake, excepting himself, <thus rendering anything he does permissible> this never existed, or, at least not quite yet?

Though thinking about it, that last post is very close to the sort of ant-intellectualist BS maga hats, Brexiteers and every other self-justifying numbskull routinely rolls out.
Perhaps I should've said somebody else's interpretation. That leaves room open for dialogue, I think. Phew!

Take a deep dive with me into how the white house and its members use sophistry. I looked at the last 10 years of fallacious reasoning and manipulation of the public and came up with my own severity scale.

Interview was confrontational IMO, but would have liked even more fact-checking in an afterword. Yarvin is falsifying world history when he claims that Hitler and Stalin were one-off authoritarians in committing genocide or mass murder. "Powerful conservatives" hope he can be a David Duke #sophistry
Yes, the very definition of #sophistry.
#Trump will pretend to have an independent deliberative body called the #Senate endorsing his leadership, and the West will pretend that after the deal with #Russia, #Ukraine is a free and independent country. #Sophistry.
So much sophistry from the SCOTUS. Once again, I believe term limits and basic testing should be required. Otherwise you get our good friend Samuel Alito!
