      Alumium is the original name. You can’t explicity say that and then also argue that Aluminum is the original. It’s a direct contradiction.

        ‘This just in, new evidence suggests that Tolkien’s working title for ‘The Lord of the Rings’ was ‘Guy With Rings Wants to Conquer the World’. According to gmtom - this is what we should call ‘The Lord of the Rings’ from now on, because it’s the original name.’

          Strawman argument. I’m litterally just saying that you can’t argue in favour of aluminum by saying its the original name, when aluminum is the original. It’s not even about which name is “”“correct”“” it’s just about using factually information.

              Yes it is, you’re constructing an argument that im not making and then arguing against that instead of what im actually saying. It’s actually textbook strawman.

                No, actually, but you clearly have very poor reading comprehension so it doesn’t seem like I’ll be getting through to you.

                Just know, when you use terms like strawman incorrectly you look fucking stupid.

                  Okay, whatever you need to tell yourself little buddy.

                  If ‘winning’ internet arguments is that important to you can go ahead and chalk this one up as a win if that makes you feel better about yourself. 😉

                    Projection, also imagine defaulting to this because you had your logic thrown in your face. Pathetic, this has nothing to do with ‘winning’ — it has everything to do with you just being wrong.
