For example, if I have position in a famous company, and all my co-workers are good at their work, but I prefer one of them then the others, and give him more promoting chances and more money. not because i do like him or his good at work, but because he is my cousin. This is when the auger goes off by not telling us that he is my cousin by if we know that he is my cousin we will not be blind thought.

Logical fallacies are tricks and illusions of thought. They are often very sneakily used by politicians and the media to fool people into thinking in a specific way. There are a lot of ways that people make terrible and invalid arguments. Making a good argument is about using logic to prove a conclusion based on some given facts. In a valid argument, the conclusion actually does follow from the facts. Unfortunately, this can go wrong in many ways. Facts don 't always support conclusions in the way an argument 's author thinks he does. Those not versed in logic are blissfully unaware of how much our brain messes up the most basic of arguments, leading to the mess of random thoughts, white lies, misinformation,

As a young graduate student who never been to Congress, Woodrow Wilson criticized the founding fathers on the separation of powers. Between his first book, Constitutional Government, in 1884, and his second book, Constitutional Government in the United States, in 1908, Wilson shifted his position on important structural features of the constitutional system. The first changed Wilson did in Constitutional Government, was to define the term “constitution” which he ignored in his first book. Second, Wilson focused his study on the presidential power defined by the constitution and third he also realized that external forces are now shaping American politics more than the intentions of the founders.
Rhetoric . A word many believe withholds a negative connotation in reference to politics, yet little did do they know, such a small-scale word has numerous definitions. Rhetoric , wWhen used in a different context, it can mean many different thingscan have many different meanings. As mentioned abovementioned, it is known to have a negativebad implication, reason being, that candidates use certain persuading techniques towards voters in order to bash their opponents. That way, they can gain votes for their own party, and convince the voters that other candidates are doing things the wrong way and gain votes for their own party. I personally perceive rhetoric as an act of communication that demands a response. as an act
An example of this is when the author claims that when the author told us about how his twin daughters that were both in cheerleading and both of them broke something in their body. In the text it states, “ needed plastic surgery on her cheek after another girl's teeth went through it during a pyramid collapse; the other broke her hand and finger.needed plastic surgery on her cheek after another girl's teeth went through it during a pyramid collapse; the other broke her hand and finger.”( Rick Reilly) The reasoning that his way of presenting the argument is strong enough to support the argument because he has really good evidence and when he does have evidence, he uses it very well. Another example that the author does a good job of making an argument is when he claims that they give football players helmets and 30 feet in the air the cheerleaders are doing the flips and that is just as dangerous as football is. This is evident when the text states, “ It's crazy, isn't it? We have girls building three-story human pyramids, flipping one another 30 feet high in the air, and we give the boy's helmets.” The author’s reasoning that it isn’t safe to not wear helmets does do a good job of supporting the argument because he has good evidence and he has good quotes from other people talking about how

An example is “For instance, swine and humans are similar enough that they can share many diseases” (Dicke and Van Huis 345). The authors create a Hasty Generalization fallacy by concluding that because humans and swine are similar, they share diseases. Furthermore, this makes the audience feel lost because the authors do not provide evidence of how “swine and humans are similar” (Dicke and Van Huis 345). Similarly, the author says that “Because insects are so different from us, such risks are accordingly lowered” (Dicke and Van Huis 345). Again, the author fails to provide a connection between how the risk of getting an infection is lowered because humans and insects are different. The authors also create a Hasty Generalization fallacy because they conclude that the risk of humans getting infected is lowered just because insects and humans are different. In summary, the use of fallacies without providing evidence and makes the readers feel
From any corner in the world you will be surrounded by propaganda: in the streets, in your house, even when you’re driving. Propaganda appears in many forms but I personally believe it to be the shaping of public beliefs, in which communication is used with the intention of manipulating. In short, propaganda is the art of brainwash. This form of art has been going for many centuries and has played an important role in the history of art, especially during the 20th century in which propaganda was used to persuade people to join the military service or to stand for their countries during wartime. At that time the objective was only one, nowadays there is more than one objective; how does propaganda influence the way 21st century society pre-establishes ideas and makes contradictions within taboos such as tattoos, marijuana and sexuality?

What makes a good person good? According to WikiHow, "We should learn to define our own morals ourselves. One of the simplest ways to do so is to love others, and treat them as you would like to be treated. Try to think of others before yourself. Even doing small things daily will greatly enrich and improve your life, and the lives of others around you." This quote shows us what we need to do in order to be what society thinks as, “good". In order to be a good person, you have to do good and moral things in your society consistently. However people might think that by doing one good thing once in a while will automatically make you a “good person”, but in reality it doesn’t.
The fact of going back to school means much for kids as they are excited of seeing again their friends, looking forward to have new experiences and it is also mean the resumption of homework which children have to do at home in the evening with great dismay for some of them, surrounded by their parents who try to help as much as they can. The pertinence of homework makes a general consensus even if kids don’t always agree with the way of giving them. After questioning some children under the age of 10, 3rd and 4th graders, I always obtain the same type of answer as the following: “It is quite demanding, it always is more difficult than what we did in class, it is not as easy
