Logical fallacies? How are they separate? Rape has a basic definition too. In a human context it means something different. It’s not “rape” in the animal kingdom just as it’s not “homosexuality” because of a few anomalies. That’s just my opinion.

How are they separate? First, hows about you try thinking about how are they even the same?

You can't really just respond with "logical fallacy" and think you won the argument. He makes a good point. There is little reason to compare us to the animal kingdom. We have different thought processes and most animals really have no morals, only survival instincts.

For Christ sake. This angle is silly.
I just showed examples where animals were in a MONOGAMOUS RELATIONSHIP. AKA. NO Rape whatsoever.

You bet your ass I can and have. There is a reason why logical fallacies exist and why someone looses an argument when they use them.





Argument from fallacy is the formal fallacy of analyzing an argument and inferring that, since it contains a fallacy, its conclusion must be false.

Trying to use "it's a fallacy" to dismiss other people's points or win in a argument  easily turns into snake eating it's own tail. 😹

If you're not bothering to break down why someone's logic or argument is unsound while you're using "it's a fallacy", it's just noise.
