More than /pol/ does.

People misunderstand logical fallacies often, especially ad hominem, no true scotsman and appeal to nature.

am I to agree with the existence of these fallacies or the unwritten consensus not to commit them

socialism is common ownership of production

Fuck sake. Here's how the fallacy fallacy works.

> If most people think something then it's true
> Most people think dogs are mammals
> Thus, dogs are mammals
> wooow appeal to the masses? this is a fallacy so this means that dogs aren't mammals.
>>
USSR was supposedly just means towards an end.

That being said, the end was batshit and the means were literally the worst.

Sure, all of these do happen, and there are times to point them out. 99% of the time though it's just some idiot either not understanding them, or trying to cover up a lack of an actual argument who tries to point them out.

>>881139
People also fuck up slippery slope constantly. They use it as an excuse for ignoring possible consequences of some actions, while the fallacy only applies to situations where the consequences are unrelated and person that commits the fallacy can't explain the link between them.
>>
>>881115

Drives me nuts when people mistake namecalling with ad hominem.

>They use it as an excuse for ignoring possible consequences of some actions.
So you're telling me that allowing same-sex couples to marry will lead to allowing people to marry their parents isn't a fallacy?

>>881306

And this is a strawman.

This is a fallacy fallacy.

>Does /his/ agree with pic related?

I agree with the pic, but I don't agree how people point out logical fallacies.

People mostly think that saying something is a fallacy, without showing how it is a fallacy, is a worthy retort.

Which it isn't.
