I don’t know what your point is. Clearly the argument I was making is not tautologically obvious. If it were then the comment above mine wouldn’t have existed. They said the headline was wrong. That the picture wasn’t fake, it was staged. I made the argument that staged could be argued to be fake. That isn’t tautological.
Ah, for clarity: The argument isn’t tautological, calling an argument about semantics a semantic argument is. It’s also an extremely common way to dismiss someone’s claims in an argument as vague or indefinite, which in an argument about a semantic point was a rather odd thing for you to do.
