Fight Club has been useful in preparing both
sides of an argument. When writing my
paper, having the arguments against your argument ready to be addressed will be
helpful in improving the credibility and the strength of my paper. This was the easiest thing that was helpful
in regards to how Fight Club strategies are applied in my paper. When researching, I was prepared to look up
articles that go against my thesis, because then I was able to see how the
other side thinks so as to better prepare ways to bring up and diminish their
arguments in my paper.
What
is still hard is trying to bring up the opposition’s points without them making
them seem better and more understandable than mine. I do not want to bring something that will
make the readers of my paper think that that is really understandable and then
it takes away from what I am trying to argue.
Fight
Club is a lot easier when it is in a verbal environment. Thoughts can flow instantaneously, because
you do not have to wait to finish writing down one thing before you go onto
another. Also, when speaking, the
arguments to your own arguments are instant.
The person that is “fighting” with you is right there, ready to say what
they have to say. There is an engagement
between two people rather than just one person trying to look at both sides of
an argument. Therefore, it is easiest to
verbally communicate when trying to see both sides of an argument to make yours
stronger.
I agree with your point of how Fight Club is much easier in person rather through writing. Arguing your points verbally allows you to address specific counterarguments specifically and thoroughly in order to effectively convince your target audience.
