A Message on Equivocation and Inaction
Manage episode 292066580 series 2923732
Around election time I constantly see people posting positions that argue both sides are bad so don't bother voting. This is the opposite end of the same fallacy Trump used when he argued there were fine people on both sides when talking about Neo-Nazi's. When you are dealing with one group that has a position rotten to it's core you only lend credence to their position by equivocating. If you're not going to vote you can say you don't care but this fallacy of demanding inaction due to equivocation has never worked throughout history to rid the world of bad intentions.
