A coherent argument does include emotion. But you assholes just use this which is incorrect reasoning:
Ad hominem (Latin for 'to the person'), short forargumentum ad hominem
, refers to several types of arguments that are usually fallacious. Often currently this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than the substance of the argument itself. This avoids genuine debate by creating a diversion often using a totally irrelevant, but often highly charged attribute of the opponent's character or background. The most common form of this fallacy is "A" makes a claim of "fact", to which "B" asserts that "A" has a personal trait, quality or physical attribute that is repugnant thereby going off-topic, and hence "B" concludes that "A" has their "fact" wrong – without ever addressing the point of the debate. Many contemporary politicians routinely use ad hominem attacks, some of which can be encapsulated to a derogatory nicknames for political opponents used instead of political argumentation. (But modern democracy requires that voters make character judgements of representatives, so opponents may reasonably criticize their characters and motives.)

When exactly does a coherent argument include emotion?
For example, an emotional argument was used to scare “you assholes” into believing the common cold was going to kill off half the population. You fell for it.The Tug is still 96-0.

You can't separate human emotion from any behavior… all arguments are intrinsically emotional. When I said "you assholes" that's basically objective.
-
an unemotional argument is like
All As are Bs
A
Therefore A is B
which is purely formal.
All other judgments involve things like intuition and bias. There was a whole movement in the 70s of "heuristics and biases."
The issue you are missing is that being emotional doesn't allow you just to defame your opponent and pretend to win. You have penetrate the stronghold of the opponent's argument itself. Big difference. -
We did win.
STFU.

Lefties are all about the feels unless someone else uses them then they are verboten and must be slandered. Meanwhile they're crying their own eyes out.

Post modern idiocy.
Unsurprising though.

Like I said, I click fuck off if it's bullshit

So either you don’t understand your own paradigm and what you're parroting or you're insincere.
Pick a lane. If all arguments are biased and emotional then don’t be surprised we aren't interested in yours.
If there are truths and realities then argue for them with merit instead of trying to fall back to some stupid "my truth" bullshit.
Or be a pussy and cry about it.

I haven't seen your coherent argument about the stock market. I just saw your insults.
