Reply to comment by MDeneka in do you think that with media (booktok and booktube) we are losing critical thinking? by Organic_Rock_6974

Because they have no depth at all? It would be like only watching Fox News or scrolling Instagram, if you’re only reading page turning garbage of course your attention span and critical thinking is going to decrease

Why do you assume that that’s all they’re reading? For someone who came in guns blazing accusing me of fallacious reasoning, you’re sure not fond of sticking to logic in your own arguments, huh? 😉

I mean you’re proving no point you’re just asking questions because you’re too scared to actual make an argument.

And I am assuming that’s all their reading because Reddit posters generally state themselves that’s all they read (see fantasy subs etc)

I’ve stuck to the same point the whole time if you only consume mindless media it’s not good for being a well rounded human. That’s not even a hot take yet I’ve had 17 Redditors try and die on the hill on this point

Scared? Of what, your amazing logic skills? Don’t flatter yourself haha. My argument was made in my first post, feel free to go back and reread if you’re confused.

Well you have obviously have incredibly logic skills from that YA fantasy you read ? 😂😂

But no I’m not confused I’ve already made my argument and get what you’re saying. I’m saying critical thinking is decreased if people only consume mindless media and that goes for books as well

Oh, look. Another asinine assumption. Have fun fighting strawmen, kiddo, I’ll leave you to it 😂

😂😂Ahaha back out of the argument because you’re mad and I stated a fact you wrote YA fantasy for middle schoolers. You have done zero anything to actually acknowledge what I’m saying you’re just angry because I’m against people reading unicorn fantasy’s for their entire life. Classic r/books

Good luck my friend

Haha no, I’m backing out of the argument because I’m not going to waste my breath talking to someone so uneducated on the topic that they don’t even know the difference between YA and MG. Come back when you have the first idea what you’re talking about 😉

😉 seems like your logic is failing once again 😂😂😂

You haven’t actually defended any of the topics at debate because you want to defend YA fantasy so badly lmao 😂😂. You’re just offended because you like fantasy. Internet hermits are fuming mad
