I would encourage people posting it , I get half of my rugby news on here anyway . <| sep |> Yea i never had any idea how they knee where to go . Now i do go when my tank levels through it <| sep |> I wonder how this will affect house prices in the area . <| sep |> I understand that the lore is complicated , but there it IS possible to figure it out , we just haven ' t done that yet . <| sep |> What ' s your master like ? <| sep |> Your teacher should be fired . <| sep |> I hope he isn ' t on the Ghost Train <| sep |> As with the appeal to the majority which you commented about yesterday , this is an informal fallacy . Someone ' s mental state can be very relevant . If someone suffering from psychosis tells you his neighbor is plotting to assassinate him , it ' s perfectly reasonable to assign his claim low credibility because of the psychosis . they just want to dismiss it with the usual BAWWWWW WHAT IF THEY ' RE NOT IN THEIR RIGHT MIND ? when that ' s not even a valid argumentThat could be a very relevant argument . The important question is whether the mental illness in question affects your ability to reason about suffering and happiness . This wouldn ' t change the validity of the presented argument , but one could reasonably doubt the premises based on the author ' s mental state . The form I often see this in is in exchanges like the following A antinatalist , B other personA It is immoral to procreate because it has the potential to cause a lot of suffering . B Creating new life also has the potential to cause a significant amount of happiness . In fact this happiness will probably outweigh the potential suffering , so procreating is not always immoral . A No amount of happiness could ever outweigh the risk of causing your children to experience the suffering of going through life with severe depression or other serious mental illness . B I think in fact it can , and does on average . A No , that is clearly insane . B Your valuation might be distorted by your personal struggle with mental illness . Noone is claiming the argument put forth by the antinatalist is invalid purely because they are themselves depressed , but the depression is reason to doubt the premise that no amount of pleasure could outweigh the suffering caused by depression .
