The following sentence uses a straw man argument: "Those who are critical of self-driving cars need to learn to accept technological advances and stop resisting the future."

A straw man argument is when you give the impression that you are countering an opponent's point, when in reality you are "making up" a point that your opponent has not presented. It is like beating down a straw man or a dummy instead of a real adversary.

Here, people who are suspicious about self-driving cars are immediately described by the author as opposed to "technological advances" and "resisting the future." However, few people who have expressed doubts about self-driving cars would say that they are against scientific progress in general. Rather, they are concerned about the safety and the accuracy of the artifical intelligence, for example, but that does not mean that they are opposed to the idea. The author uses this rhetorical device to make his/her opponents lose credibility.

What are some controversial/unpopular opinions that you have?
inysia [295]

Answer:

That we should return to the roots of why the United States is created, however, with exceptions.

Explanation:

The US was built primarily as a place for us to have "freedom", but the freedom comes with a price, and is not true freedom (being a limited freedom). While we have "freedom", it is defined, limited, and cannot trespass the boundary called laws.

However, in today's society, today's Millennials have mostly forgotten about our past, and do not respect the countries traditions. They demand some of the most foul opinions, and, being the loud minority, is able to force the rest of the US population to go along with them. I believe that this should not be the case, and that it had brought the US down. However, most of today's young adults do not agree, and continue to lead the people down the spiral. I wish not to put a definitive term, as it would cause an argument, but in the end, we must keep the good, and throw away the bad, not just throwing away both.
