You are doing a logical fallacy of assuming wrong based only on logical fallacies. I am downvoting you.

[–] an_onanist@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You've assumed the OP is downvoting because of the wrongness of the argument rather than the lack of validity.

True, i did a sophism, all cards must now be reversed, i am upvoting you.

Me: downvoting comments that technically follow logically but are annoying, pedantic, and lack important context.

Downvoted: formal fallacy

There's no connection between premise and conclusion.

[–] an_onanist@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No assumption was made on the accuracy of the argument only on the validity of the argument,therefore no fallacy was committed,. On the other hand you committed the Hasty generalization fallacy by assuming OP's intent.

Formal fallacies do not relate to the truth of either the premise or the conclusion but having valid form. Your argument just doesn't follow. How is downvoting fallacies therefore doing your part.

That's a fallacy fallacy.

Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.

Name one what? One post that commits a logical fallacy? A logical fallacy? You've been downloaded for creating a vague argument.

[–] Okokimup@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Aw c'mon, you wouldn't download a shitposter would you?

I'm appealing to OPs authority and not including a Fallacy in this comment.

Oh shit...
