“Raymond, why do you throw all your money away on dumb entertainment? You should be saving up so you can buy a more dependable car.”
Son:”Why should I save up my money.You’ ve never saved adime in your life!”
Explanation: Well, it may be entirley true that I’ve never saved a dime in my lfe, but that doesn’t have anythong to do with wether or not my son should be saving money. This is an example of the “Two Wrongs Make a Right” fallacy(the specifit name is Tu Quoque, which in Latin means”You,too”) The”fallacy” behind this argument that makes it bas is this :”You’ve done a wrong thing by not saving money, so that proves that it;s okay for me also to dp a wrong thing by not saving money, so that prove that it’s okay for me also to do a wrong thing by not saving money.”
Please create those 6 entries and explain it.
(1) Tu Quoque(“Two Wrong Make a Right”[You,too"])-
(2)Hesty Generalization-When a general conclusion is based on too little specific evidence: example: “I’ve seen two Caldillacs in my life and they were both black.I guess all Cadillacs are black.”
(3) Unrepresentative Sample(“Skewed Sample”)
-When a conclusion is drawn about a whole population or class of thnig from evidence that may not be representative of the whole population or class.
(4)Faulty Use of Authority-
When authorities in one field are cited as authorities in another.
example:”If Courtney Love uses Excedrin, it must be pretty good medicine.”
(5)Argumentum Ad Miseracordium(“Appeal to Pity”)-
When the “logic” for doing or not doing something is based not on logic at all but on the emotion of pity.
Example:”We should promote Smith over Jones because Smith really need the hike in pay”
(6)Argumentum Ad Hominem(“Arguing Against the Man”)
-When the man himself is attacked and not his argumen
EX:”Dont’t listen to Tom’s adcice on investing. He’s nothing but a no-account lush”
