		<description>Lol, Remort, have it your way. You too Sugar. Being attacked and misinterpreted by fuzzy logicians from both sides of the spectrum is a rare honor.</description>

		<description>Mizar5 scribbled:
"You know what these words mean, but, to misquote Samual Johnson, correcting an interlocutor’s spelling is the last refuge of a scoundrel."

It's called illiteracy.  A scoundrel, huh?  That's cute.  :P

Mizar5 scribbled:
"My intent is to show that not all Koreans think like this."

It appears as if you are failing.  In any event, I'm sure that Koreans would really appreciate knowing that you are educating all of us "unfair, small-minded, and unbalanced" Western devils about them and their culture.</description>

		<description>Lol. I was experimenting with different servers and some didn't copy right away, so I reposted. 

&lt;B&gt;Four consecutive posts in a row. Geee,you’re desperate.
As I said, it must be hard to be you.&lt;/B&gt; 

Yes, that's your argument in a nutshell - "you suck". But if that's what you'd like to believe, then what does that say about you?</description>

		<description>Remort asked: 

&lt;B&gt;Mizar5: What does “privilige” and “exponant” mean? Why do you dislike mainly male, Western ex-patriates so much?&lt;/B&gt;  

Address your comments to Sugar Shin whom I was quoting and to whom the criticism rightly applies.

You know what these words mean, but, to misquote Samual Johnson, correcting an interlocutor's spelling is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Shin is guilty of this also. This is not surprising since it is a dirty form of argument that straddles "ad hominem", "strawman" and other logical fallacies. It is only natural that he would build his arguments on logical fallacies, not only because his arguments are fallacious but because he is, after all, attempting to defend the indefensible - prejudice.


Remort continues: 
&lt;B&gt;So, following your &lt;I&gt;(sic - Shin's)&lt;/I&gt; logic about ex-patriates complaining in Korea, when Koreans are upset about or don’t understand something outside of Korea while abroad, they should be told to STFU and harassed by a xeonophobic netizen that loves to spam other’s blogs?&lt;/B&gt;

Precisely. This is the double standard form of hypocracy that he upholds. If you don't think like him, you are excluded from his race (he purports to be Korean) and, in fact, the race of respectable human beings.

My response is to allow him discredit himself with arguments based on "truthiness" (see wikipedia) and emotionalism and bias rather than actual analysis. My intent is to show that not all Koreans think like this.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;That says something about your, hm, low status in his eyes. That should make you feel sad.&lt;/em&gt;

Get a clue. You are defined by your OWN representations, not those who take pot shots in the dark.</description>

		<description>It was a pretty pathetic argument and, no the Marmot does not know who I am and took a wild stab in the dark. Sugar admittedly does not "'argue' in a proper way." End of story.</description>

		<description>I love to quote the Marmot. I think he has the best overview, what's going on at (t)his place. Thanx for your advice. I'll come back after a rhetoric crash course. Don't have much time at hand to "argue" in a proper way.</description>

		<description>Man, SS...  Come up with some quotes of your own, or at least learn how to argue your way out of a wet paper sack.   You'll sound much less sycophantic for it, trust me.</description>
