# how can an opinion be bullshit?

# if you won't accept it because you know "better"

usual reason innit

# errr ... with some ease
just because its an opinion does not make it valid; some opinions have a greater founding in truth, evidence and logic than others and only one opinion can be correct in the end. Thus some opinions can be bullshit.

edit: *is not taking sides here; just saying*

and opinions are ALWAYS valid...as opinions.

# Well, I could say "In my opinion, Spaniards are covertly controlling the weather"

# no
it would be an opinion, stating it would be bullshit

# stating that it's bullshit is also an opinion

# no
that's a statement

saying "my opinion is that your opinion is bullshit" is an opinion

# but surely saying "my opinion of your bullshit statement is that it is a bullshit opinion" is bullshit
hang on

# in fact your all wrong
he prefixed what he said with in my opinion, so all he is stating is that he has that opinion. Irt all becomes bullshit if he doesn't hold that fact to be true.

it wouldn't be as it's prefixed as in my opnion. what he is claiming that he has an opinion that spaniards control the weather.. it's only bullshit if he doesn't actually believe that.

# You're saying that ideas - existing by themselves - are all of equal value
until thought about by humans, is that it?

Or are you saying that a private opinion is likely to remain of value to the person holding it regardless of valid criticism?
(, Tue 27 May 2008, 3:07, archived)
# no
i'm saying that everyone is entitled to their opinion. that all opinions are valid, and cannot be dismissed as bullshit.

acting on those opinions, or building a system of beliefs however can be.

# valid
{prentious cun}epistmologically speaking{/prentious cunt} means its a Justified True Belief.

but then all three of those terms are subjective.. especially truth. any way back to the tits.
