How to Argue on the Internet: A guide to online debates and how to win them.

Ever disagreed with someone online? Ever seen an opinion on Facebook, Reddit, Quora or an online forum that you just knew was wrong? How to Argue On the Internet will equip you to best present your case.

Sections include:
Where to find an argument,
How to present your own arguments most effectively,
how to counter an opposing viewpoint,
dirty tricks to watch out for and how to counter them,
how to know when you've had too much,
and how to plan an effective exit strategy.

A detailed case study examining the Internet piracy debate is included along with examples ranging from the quality of Education in America to the non-existence of the Brontosaurus.

The reader will learn how to use the burden of proof to their advantage, what a fallacy is (and more importantly what it isn't) how to dismantle evidence, how to avoid getting stuck talking to a Barrow Pusher, Pedant or Armchair expert, how to spot and exploit a logical flaw, and most importantly of all: how to have a discussion that ends with you reading the words "You're right, thanks for pointing that out."
