Answer:

Ad Hominem

Explanation:

An ad hominem fallacy or argumentum ad hominem in full is fallacy that occurs when one attacks the character or circumstances of a person making an argument or statement instead of disproving the truth or the soundness of the statement or argument. This is exemplified in Karen's statement above where she mentions the occupation of the person making an argument instead of disproving his statement as false or truth.

Answer: Ad Hominem

Explanation: The use of invalid justification techniques in establishing basis for an argument is called fallacy. Therfore various types of fallacies can be identified. However, in the context above, Karen's response highlights a fallacy tagged 'Ad Hominem' which is committed when an argument deviates from the topic of discourse and focuses on the personality or motive of the speaker. Karen's response should have been a reply centered on addressing that point raised by the player without bringing the personality or supposed motive into the discussion by expressly alleging that the player's demand or view was borne out of being self-centered.

Was colonial america a democratic society?​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Depends!

Explanation:

It depends on what part of Colonial America you were talking about. Places like New York and the Southern colonies were typically more aristocratic, where the colony was run by a small elite number of wealthy landowners. Pennsylvania was run by the Quaker oligarchs, who held a firm control over the colonial government.

The two most "democratic" societies in Colonial America were the New England colonies and in the backcountry. Local government in New England was practiced through a "Town Meeting", where residents would get together to discuss and vote on various issues. In the backcountry, where colonial authority tended to be weak, society tended to be more egalitarian, and settlers had to work together in order to stay alive and prosper.
