“Partisans will try to appeal to the notion that political arguments are really about which group is better in order to dismiss criticism of their group. We might think that we can refute criticism by pointing out that 'the other party does the same thing too.' But whether the other party does it too is relevant only if we're arguing about which party is better, not which policies are better.” PoliticsDemocracyRhetoricAuthoritarianismDemagogueryParty PoliticsPartisan DebatePolitical Argument Book:Demagoguery and Democracy Source: Demagoguery and Democracy
