Dismissal from emotion fallacy

No, you jackass. That's not how it works. What you're doing is what every idiot on the planet does when there's some sort or disagreement. It's the most common modern fallacy. It's not an official fallacy. It's ORIGINAL. UNIQUE. Which is what I do here. ORIGINAL refutations of morden misconceptions.
Hym "Let's call it 'Dismissal from emotion falacy.' Here's how it's works: You use my emotional state or project a negative emotional state (Anger, Jealousy, Fear) on to me for the purposes of dismissing a proposition or statement. It's fallacious (obviously) because my emotional state has has no baring on the truth of my proposition. 2+2=4 regardless of whether or not I'm angery while I tell you that 2+2=4. My emotional state is irrelevant. And by accusing me of 'Jealousy' you're doing the EXACT SAME THING leftist do when they accuse conservatives of being transphobes or homophobes. Protecting 'Fear' on to them for the purpose of dismissing their propositions. There you have it. 'Dismissal from emotion fallacy' that's the thing you're doing. Look for it. You'll see it all the time. People do it all the time."

Rounded-Fallacy

- The false, misleading, or mistaken idea that is can appear to be sound and reasonable but still in error.

- Although investigated to be untrue or misleading, the fallacy can still be labelled a sound argument somehow.
- "Look, I see your point, and it sounds like you have thought it through, but, after careful thinking, you are expressing a rounded-fallacy that is unfortunately untrue."

- Conspiracy theorists can point to many indications and pieces of information in order to believe a rounded-fallacy that 9/11 was a set up from the government in order to start a way in Iraq for nefarious reasons. Many would point to this to be false and untrue, however, that could be very difficult to do.

- MAGA supporters believe in the rounded-fallacy that America was once great, but will have to argue how America was great for all ethnic minorities and the ethnic majority within the country.

Staple's Fallacy

The idea that people need to be compelled to not be pieces of shit. This is built on the assumption that people are shitty by nature, ie Madison vs. Monroe and the federalist papers. This fallacy provides a way of passing judgement on others for their assumptions or opinions, and contributes disagreeable assumptions/opinions to an over-generalization that is based on geographic location. The fact that it is just geographic location that determines a person's assumptions or opinions shows how over-generalized this idea is, which in turn makes it a fallacy.
he emphasized Staple's Fallacy when he said that they are stupid and ignorant because they come from an underdeveloped part of the world.

Facts are friendly, Fiction is Fallacy

The truth will have no conceivable defence, where as a fictional narrative can always be confirmed as fallacy.
John: I believe that we can grow our gross revenue 10% over the next six years using this marketing strategy.

Harvey: Well, facts are friendly. until then, fiction is fallacy.

The definition of fact being an absolute truth, where as to define fallacy is to holding a mistaken belief, especially one based on unsound arguments.

Facts are friendly, fiction is fallacy - would be defined as until you have evidence you are unable to make a case against the fallacy of your argument.

fryan fallacy

The Fryan Fallacy is when you don't know what you're talking about and link the first thing you find on google that you think supports your opinion, but it outright refutes it.
Your own source debunked your own claim. You just committed the Fryan Fallacy.

Logical fallacies

A useful set of 'refutational tools' whose usage is mainly seen in random internet arguments but can also equally be applied in the IRL realm too, such as against your wife or your boss. The former scenario is where people often abuse logical fallacies to the point of committing a fallacy fallacy, so be wise and use them sparingly and only as a supplement to your argument.

Also related to non sequitur.
1) Jim called out his boss by using logical fallacies to poke holes in his ridiculous decisions.
2) Tommy used logical fallacies to his advantage in order to expose the inconsistencies in his girlfriend's reasoning with regards to how he should spend his money.
