- Embed this noticeEmotional outbursts, and emotional-laden messages and presentations of whatever sort, or #emotions themselves, are not an #argument.
Emotion speak deeply to us as human beings, but it often do so in ways that are not logical, or have their own #logic of sorts; They tend to bypass the necessary formal, argumentative logic that is used in making the world run productively and run fairly and justly.
They may in some cases be support of an argument but they are not and can never be actual arguments, and people who imply they are or take them to be such are wrong and end up supporting at best misguided or often worse, manipulative causes.
