Actually, you can present the fallacy to anyone providing an undistributed middle syllogism, since they've "made an argument". In the post, an undistributed middle is identifiable - "your most hated almost dictatorship". This is almost certainly not the same even among tankies, so the user is putting forth an argument with poor logic from the get-go. You're not actually educated about logic except by youtube videos from people using greek or roman figures as avatars, are you?
Right on, buddy! Logic nerds forever! Screw those "pathos" and "ethos" thingies, what possible use could they be? We, the high and mighty logicians, know that Logos is the only one that matters! Appeal to logos or appeal to death, amirite??
(Just to be clear here, this is a pretty nerdy website. If you're going to pose an argument like this, you should make sure it's sound before throwing down the "bruh do u even see how educated I am" gauntlet...)
