Media Tricks in Cognitive Science | Technique 26: Irrational Argument – Parallel Logic
Fars News Agency – Media Group: Every event, incident or crisis that occurs in society has a lot of analysis, apparently the only thing that does not need a strong argument is the mental analysis of foreign media experts. In the midst of a lot of discussions and interpretations, a trick is used to get the audience to go through irrational words and arrive at a different logic. A technique known as “irrational reasoning – parallel logic.”
In this media ploy, even weak arguments are made to make the audience think that they are making a choice and choosing a more accurate analysis, if they are practically entering into a parallel logic that they want. Going through wrong propositions does not necessarily lead to correct propositions, we may arrive at a vague or completely false proposition.
In an interview with Fars, Alireza Davoodi, Master of Media and Cognitive Sciences, while explaining the function of foreign Persian language media regarding the technique of “irrational reasoning – parallel logic”, said: “It is called sophistry in simpler terms because the basis of reasoning must be logic. Logic is derived from a process from fact to fact analysis.
Davoodi added: “When we talk about irrational reasoning, it means that apparently I am arguing a subject for you based on some facts, but basically those facts themselves do not make sense, but we create parallel logic next to it.”
Master of Media and Cognitive Science by stating what is parallel logic? He said that the parallel region is considered the same competitor in the usual arguments.
Davoodi explained, for example, that the electricity has been cut off, the reason is that the power plants are worn out and the electricity is cut off, the reason is that, for example, we are exporting electricity to Iraq, now what term does the addressee accept in the power outage? It accepts your argument that power plants are worn out but does not see a logical argument for it, it sees in the parallel logic that is created, and basically an irrational argument is made to accept the audience of parallel logic regardless of what it understands. Or not, so this is one of the beta techniques that movement within itself is essential because evolution is in itself.
Davoodi continued: “They do this to make the second issue happen, so irrational reasoning involves a set of facts that are used to argue and the audience knows that there is no logic behind it or understands that it is irrational.” It is to reach the point where when they create parallel logic, they accept and understand it with minimal arguments and mental navigation over previous subjects.
The tricks of foreign media to change the minds of Persian-speaking audiences are increasing day by day, knowing and understanding this war is part of the media literacy needed by our Iran today. Therefore, the media try to intervene in this process according to their goals. Creating, changing or strengthening beliefs is one of the functions of the media in accompanying the audience.
It is instinctive to try to change people’s beliefs and actions by introducing data to prove that we are right and that they are wrong, but one should not ignore one’s current position when trying to persuade. When new information agrees with our beliefs, the brain eagerly accepts it, and if it contradicts our beliefs, our minds suddenly become a lawyer who seeks any conceivable flaw, so knocking, opposition. It does not weaken, but usually has a boomerang effect to the extent that a mockery may multiply the opposition.
Because we are often exposed to conflicting information and perspectives, this tendency will lead to polarization, which will receive more information over time. In fact, presenting information that contradicts previous beliefs can synergize and reinforce the core view known as the “boomerang effect.”
People may not use their intelligence to get more accurate results, but they can use it to find errors in data they are dissatisfied with. The greater the cognitive capacity, the greater the ability to rationalize and interpret information voluntarily and to present data creatively to accommodate feedback.
We all know that our emotions affect our judgment. Research shows that we understand each other better when the brain is in sync with emotion. We joke, we laugh, we talk, then it seems that the conversation is going smoothly. Positive feeling is related to the gray matter of the brain. This is why stories can be powerful in convincing people that even when logical arguments fail, you can have the best evidence in the world, but if you are not emotionally compatible with the audience, they may even be. They do not really hear what you are saying.
Emotion is the physiological state of the listener or speaker, which, if better understood, causes the listener to process the input information in the same way that the speaker sees it. This is why emotion extraction can help you communicate ideas and have the same perspective with others, whether you are talking to one person or to thousands. One of the most powerful ways to communicate ideas effectively is to share emotions. Emotions are contagious; By expressing our feelings, we shape the emotional states of others, and people are more likely to understand our point of view.

Media techniques have entered the field of cognitive sciences in today’s world, so Radio Dialogue has prepared a 90-part program to acquaint the audience with these techniques.
“Narration of Colors” is the name of this series of specialized programs in the field of cognitive sciences with the focus on media tricks in diverting public opinion, which has achieved the mission of this network in creating effective influence on the elites and activists of Iranian society.
This program, which is designed and produced in the form of new structures, in each part and in a conversation with Dr. Alireza Davoodi, media expert and cognitive science expert, with a specialized and analytical approach and with objective examples to expose foreign media techniques and The dissident works to destroy the mind of the Iranian people.
