Circular argument

[Greta]

An argument that goes nowhere. Though a person believes he or she is arguing a point, the argument does not progress because the individual provides the same point for the effect as he/she does for the cause (i.e., the effect is just the cause stated in different words). In short, what is given as the effect is already made obvious--either overtly or implicitly--by the supporting reason provided.

To say, I didnt like that movie because it was really bad, is to provide a [premise] in support of the opinion [that goes without saying]. It goes without saying that if one does not like the movie, he/she will not believe the movie is good. [Likewise], statements such as I am Bainz, so I am drunk, I enjoy listening to music when I study because music helps me to study, and I wear Fant-Ho [shades] because theyre the best shades are equally [circular] in nature. A true argument would supply support that explains WHY Bainz is always drunk, HOW music helps the persons study habits, and WHAT makes Fant-Ho shades better than other brands.

Dumb people write circular arguments.
