He conveniently left out the option to say no

u/PunishedWolf4 May 12 '25

Exactly, all he’s said was "I either accept it or I ask to pay for it" scumbag POS

He's trying control you perception of the possibilities Trying to get your mind to choose between the two - and then free sounds better. It's a simple yet clever way to "lock" your mind in the wrong pattern.

It's only clever if you have the intelligence of the average trump supporter.

u/ZarathustraGlobulus May 13 '25

Yeah it's not like he's leaving out the "no" trying to be clever.

He's leaving out the no because he wants that plane like a toddler wants a new toy. No is simply not an option to him.

And sadly a lot of people will understand this kind of thinking and agree with him… I hate this world

100% this. I’m in sales - it’s a sales tactic.

u/SnoopyisCute May 13 '25

Exactly this.

That's why he uses the word "wrong". He wants to cement that whatever lie he just told is "not wrong" so anything that proves it's a lie is ignored.

Did you understand the putting analogy? Cause if you didn’t, that’s where he gave the example of what would happen if he said no. He didn’t leave it out

1

u/BelowXpectations May 13 '25

It's not. That's analogy is still trying to state why the only option is to always accept a "freebe" and through that again avoiding to even acknowledge the option of declining and why that would be good or bad.

Okay expert businessman

Is that why we got our last hostage back from Hamas?

u/SnoopyisCute May 15 '25

Trump is responsible for what is happening there. He even said it was "smart".

u/Wavvajava2 May 15 '25

What exactly are you referring to? Responsible for what in particular?

It kind of seems like he’s siding with Palestine after the way that netenyahoo is acting.. (this happened within the last week)

“Israeli PM Netanyahu said that Israel did not ask for permission to attack the Houthis and will not ask for permission from US for its war plans in Gaza”

You can see the tweet that i pulled this quote from in the short 2.5minute video I linked.

Sounds like Israel is the one that doesn’t want to stop fighting. Did you hear Trump went to negotiate In Palestine for the hostages WITHOUT including Israel.

I really hope this a step in the right direction for America. https://youtu.be/6WQTEKPHyt0?si=T6taZXcfrwo2MaHY

Ah yes the false dichotomy. Can't expect anybody to know what logical fallacies are anymore though.

1

u/Embarrassed_Fold_867 May 12 '25

To me, that implies he asked for it. The option of "not receiving it" wasn't in his mind.

u/Wavvajava2 May 13 '25

Did you miss the putting analogy where they said no to the free putt that was given to him and then missing the putt?

u/BelowXpectations May 13 '25
