3. Appeal to Tradition (Logical Fallacy)

The scholars rely on Appeal to Tradition. They claim an idea is correct just because it is old. The girl deconstructs this by pointing out the inherent bias: the "forefathers" were men writing for men.

A T-shirt with a graphic of a syringe and the words "the longer I remain unjabbed the more evidence I see supporting my decision"

Just FYI folks, confirmation bias is a fallacy to carefully correct against, not something to be proud of.

The Psychology of BAD Decisions: Anchors, Bandwagons, and Blind Spots What if the biggest obstacle to your success isn't the world around you, but the faulty wiring in your own brain? It's time to meet the invisible puppet masters pulling your strings. Welcome to your official user's manual for the human mind. In this episode, we're exposing the 12 most powerful cognitive biases—the mental shortcuts and thinking errors that secretly sabotage your decision-making every single day. We'll break down the sneaky ways that Confirmation Bias traps you in an echo chamber, how the Anchoring Bias lets the first piece of information control your thoughts, and why the Survivorship Bias is tricking you into following terrible advice. This isn't a boring psychology lecture; it's a rebellion against your own default programming. Through relatable, real-world examples, you'll learn to spot these glitches in your own logical thinking, from the Bandwagon Effect to the Availability Heuristic. Mastering this knowledge is the first step to upgrading your mental operating system, making smarter choices, and finally seeing the world as it is, not as your biased brain wants you to see it. Ready to stop being played by your own mind? Follow now and share this essential guide with anyone who's ready to think more clearly.

Whenever the @nytimes.com publishes a piece about the genocide, the comments section gets vitriolic so fast that the NYT needs to shut it down after about 5 minutes. Most of the objections are along the lines of "What about....?" People need to be taught about #logicalfallacies

Toxicity Toolkit – Breakout Topics 2 Breakout topics - Logical Fallacies These ideas are so much better Shared!! The First Tools. (Written November 2022) As I’ve worked on building The Toxicity Toolkit, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking of times that I was able to let go of the toxicities I was raised in, or choose a replacement SCRIPTT to change my outcomes. It occurred to me that starting college was a very instrumental move in transforming myself from the toxic me I was trained to be. One of the biggest catalysts for this change was exposure to knowledge about Logical Fallacies.

15 Logical Fallacies to Know, With Definitions and Examples You’ve seen them on social media. You’ve heard them in movie dialogue. Heck, you’ve probably even used them yourself. They’re logical…

Partisan debates drown in logical fallacies: ad hominem attacks etc. These aren’t legitimate arguments—just tactics derailing serious discussion. Call them out. Shut them down.
