It actually has a meaning!
And it sounds legit because when someone commits "begging the question," their argument is debunked.
Yep. So it's a boss move...

Ahhh... logical fallacies being called out. Debate being done exquisitely.
"Begging the Question" is a logical fallacy where you have assumed your conclusion.
"I am trustworthy. There. See. I have proved that I am trustworthy!"
In real life, it is a bit harder to spot. So the phrase is somewhat rare in its proper usage. Which makes it that much more beautiful when it happens!
Undying thanks is rare these days. Especially from random strangers on the internet.
See how much you have to gain!?
Never again will you be able to casually listen to a news anchor as they incorrectly use the English language.

It is just a bad / invalid argument.
But no crafty premise, so not begging the question!
I'd still be ok if you call this one begging the question though 😉
