I know I was supposed to write what was useful about the mission critical website, but I first wanted to mention how overloaded with links it is. I saw it and I was just overwhelmed about what to do. They should find some way to streamline the interface or something because I just wasn't even sure what to click on at that point just because of the amount of things to click on. I realize that much of it is also review, as it covers old ground like appeals to fear and pity etc. Also things like straw men and others.
Edit: It turns out that my word count for this post was a bit short. So I'm going to post this little gem I found in the Instruction to Ad Hominem section of Mission Critical.
"Of course she's in favor of affirmative action. What do you expect from a black woman?"
I also just realized that I never post and images or media or anything - so here's one:
I totally agree! When I first got onto that website, I was also overwhelmed by the large amount of links it had for us. It made me not wanna click on any of them because it just like right away made me feel like there was too much and I’d never be able to finish it all. But when you finally sit yourself down and make yourself read through them and complete the exercises, you realize how helpful and useful the whole reading was and how it is such a good review for all of us because, like you said, they’re all concepts we’ve learned previously. Anyway, I applaud you for stating your honest opinion and taking the other stand when everyone else is just saying all the good things about the website! Great job on this post! =)
