How so? To say that Hitler never used facts is an awfully ignorant blanket statement that couldn't possibly be true...

Nothing to be misunderstood about really.
Although, remember that Hitler did go quite crazy in the last few years of his life, and hardly anything he said was even remotley true sadly. And i can easily back that up if people want. But it is quite obvious he would have used facts at some point, although probably sparsley. So Danny does have a valid point here folks.

But I'm disputing it, so by your own definition, they're not facts.

It's not my definition, it's Oxford's.
And what specifically are you disputing?

Superiority as a whole is subjective, and is often subjective in part also.
Consider that PCs have their advantages and Macs have their advantages, but an entire ideological system where one is better than the other in seemingly every respect is irrelevant and achieves nothing. The subjectivity in making a decision like that is immense.
I prefer Macs over PCs because, from the evidence available to me, they are reliable, efficient and easy to use. I do regard elements of PCs to include those above definitions but I have come to the conclusion that Macs are, overall, better at those things.
I wouldn't pressure or make anyone buy something that they didn't want to, because, although I do see the Mac as being superior in terms of the things I want it for, others may not see this and I would only give them the information needed for them to come to a conclusion.

My favorite kind of internet fights are game console fights.

That would be an excellent ad for Linux, because using us would make both Windows and Macs look dorky.

Better idea, you can be Linux, Danny can be Mac, and I can be Windows(at least until later this or next month...). I can blue screen after trying to speak, you guys can wail on me then be dorky. 
In my opinion the dorkiest one wins.
Good luck.

This is giving me a very bad idea for a topic. Not one for us arguing, but instead for archiving arguments from elsewhere for epic lulz.

I agree with everything everyone else just said.
