you're wrong because you're a retard : adhom
you're a retard : not adhom
That's incorrect
It would be "you are wrong because you hold x belief"
that just points towards a bias
hardly constitutes as adhom
It's a type of bias
What you described is insults either way
hurr you're wrong because u read breitbart
Yep
There you go
some truth in there tho
breitbart is retarded
Can be
Not all logical fallacies are bad
Or wrong I should say
slippery slope can apply in a lot of cases
like the degeneration of the society
Depends on the level of correlation
If it's above a 50% correlation than yes
For example queer theroy causing pedophilia
it's not what I'm saying, I'm saying that typically the slippery slope already happened and that saying it won't happen because it's a logical falacy is a bit of a lie
Well yeah that's appeal to stone though
There is also a fallacy fallacy
some meta shit right here
Not really think about a war vs a battle you can lose a single point to a fallacy but your overall idea is not fallacious
They're using the literal definition of ad-hom
It does mean an insult, however, an insult does not become a fallacy until it is used as an argument
I can say Islam is dangerous, all Muslims are terrorists. I've committed a fallacy of composition but to say I'm completely wrong would be false
Calling someone retarded is not a fallacy
Exactly
Shapiro gets it
saying someone is wrong because he is a retard is fallacious tho
Yes
that's what I said initially my friend
But that's an insult not ad hom
go read again
I'm just pointing out that technically ad hom does mean insult, but that doesn't make it a fallacy right away
I dont like the way its defined
it gets misused a lot
An insult is not a fallacy
using it as a reason to dismiss someone, is
