Liberal Intolerance Pros And Cons

Improved Essays
Cassidy paper wrote her paper on “Liberal Intolerance” argued against the author topic due to lack of credibility. What I like best about this paper was, she was able to go into detail about the article, and I was able to understand the article without reading it. What parts that were strongly written was Cassidy introduction paragraph. The hook brought me in, and I could she her thesis stated clearly. What in the paper seemed confusing is what areas the author lacked beside creditability. Did she also lack in pathos and logos? It was hard for me to catch out. Why I was confused cause she through essay she main focus was why the author lack creditability. But she explains what part were good about the author by why certain parts where she could start to lose her audience. The part the writer could clarify a …show more content…
Then all cons. “she could’ve of argued her opinions to why she believes being far left is on the rise, she could have argues why this is something conservatives should be extremely worried about” (Cassidy) is paragraph, Cassidy using the word “could” again doesn’t show what the author of the did and didn’t do. The repeated word “could” only indicates possibility. On the construction side, I think the introduction was strong, there was enough summary of the article in the beginning, I saw her hook, and thesis statement. I wouldn’t make any changes to the introduction. Where the author could improve on the organization is trying to balance out the positives of the articles and the negative. The essay only give me the negatives of the article. She could improve in the beginning by start of like this where the author shows good ethos, logos and pathos. And then next paragraph this where the author lose her credibility an audience in the article. Yes the topic sentences were clear and adequately introduce what each paragraph was going to address.one topic sentence that could be revise is “Another problem I have with this article…” it shows more

    Source 1 is considerably critical of conservative integrity, so much so that it may have well in fact been written by Rousseau himself. Questioning the moral integrity of those who believe in conservatism, the source blatantly calls out the faults that are present even in today’s conservative based government. Implying that the conservatives are not at all concerned with the common good, the source disparages a well known fact of conservative parties; that their reputation is arguably not the most principle. Since 2006, Harper’s government has done no favours to the conservative reputation, leading the Canadian economy into a spiralling downfall of debt and overspending. Ironically, Harper’s Economic Action Plan had promised to do just the opposite.…

    The negative components to this book were present throughout the novel. From the first paragraph I I could tell the writing style would disappoint. The sentence flow was weak and bored me.

    Matthew Crawford delivers a true gift with his writing of The Jig, the Nudge, and Local Ecology in the rarity that his messages are actually applicable to what one might call “the real world” or life outside of academia. All messages aside, this piece is meticulously crafted to get through to his audience, no matter who that may be. Crawford reminds us that the classical appeals and subtle style changes in writing can still make a much larger impact than elegant word choice and gets straight to his points. They are well crafted with a true rhetorical value, and all become memorable through his utilization of often unnoticed and rather advanced rhetorical techniques. With a tone coming off as that of an uncle or godfather looking out for…

    Every generation comes with its challenges. Linda J. Collier addresses a sympathetic and concerned audience as she uncovers an issue long swept under the rug: punishments of juveniles who commit adult crimes, such as murder, rape, etcetera. As a former university attorney and court appointed guardian for juveniles in legal trouble, she has firsthand knowledge of the ineffectiveness of the juvenile court system. While her use of thought provoking examples creates a strong argument, she fails to convince me that juveniles who commit serious crimes deserve to serve adult punishments. Collier begins her argument by recounting the incident of Mitchell Johnson and Andrew Golden, who had led a massacre in Jonesboro, Arkansas.…

    Elizabeth Kolbert's article, “Why Facts Don’t Change Our Minds,” in the New Yorkers February 2017 issue looks at some main ideas in three different psychological books about patterns in human reasoning and attempts to connect them to today’s politics. Her explanation of the studies and their outcomes were superb, though she could have done a better job at connecting these points to her political conclusion.

    Her tone then quickly changes to an informative one in paragraphs two and three as she covers the only form of logos in the entire essay. Finally her tone darkens in the final argument of the essay as she explains the conditions of the factory farms and what people are forcing animals to go through by eating meat. She spends most of the essay arguing this final point trying to get the reader to feel sorry for the animals by explaining in detail how the animals are contained and how they are treated in these factory farms. Even though there is this great disparity in length of arguments, the essay is very clear about when each point is going to come up and what to expect. Though her main downside is her citations, or lack there of.…

    The Lack of Persuasiveness The idea of “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All” can be a bold and touchy subject. A writer should be careful on the way the tone and language are presented so that their audience may take away exactly what they want. With the wrong tone or language, a writer could very easily misguide their audience the wrong direction in which they intended. Anne-Marie Slaughter presents respectable and clear examples when she discusses “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All,” which helps to be persuasive to her audience.…

    Self Portrait According to the Meriam-Webster dictionary website, liberal education can be defined as, “education based on the liberal arts and intended to bring about the improvement, discipline, or free development of the mind or spirit” (2016). Throughout IS 101, deeper insight of what that definition truly means and the characteristics of being liberally educated were discussed and talked about. The IS 101 Reader was the main source of this information and was supplemented by a few other books. Inquiry Studies 101 taught me what I believe to be the core characteristics and definition of a liberal learner.…
