Don't Go Down the Rabbit Hole
There are several fallacies I found while reading this article about critical thinking.
strawman You misrepresented someone's argument to make it easier to attack.
ad hominem You attacked your opponent's character or personal traits in an attempt to undermine their argument.
genetic You judged something as either good or bad on the basis of where it comes from, or from whom it came.
appeal to authority You said that because an authority thinks something, it must therefore be true.
Fallacy and cognitive biases are tools of the trade for a skilled propagandist...IDK about skilled when I was able to spot these with a first reading.
I look forward to their next articles:
Some might call my statements strawman. I might call his statement strawman.
