Following the news, that we’re all well aware of, that Aspecticor will be shot with a high-dosage tranquilizer, I would like to point out all the rhetorical fallacies that the current Liberal Party government has made to justify their decision.
Appeal to Tradition
I know the Canadian government has shot that bitter night-night juice at a variety of citizens every year since 1982, but it is still wrong.
False Dilemma
No, Mr. Carney, we would not have to kill Aspecticor if we end the Tranq program, we shouldn’t be doing anything to Aspecticor.
Cum Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc
Can you say that?
Appeal to Carney
Honest I have a hard time with this too. The mandate of heaven is in your hands Mark.
Guilt by Association
Just because Aspecticor’s all buddy buddy with some folks at the Daily Wire does not mean he should be tranq’d.
Ad Hominem
Please stop calling me a “hacky crossword constructor” Carney. I’m crying now. Are you happy?
Cum Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc
Stop saying that. I don’t want to say it. Am I allowed to say this term?
Confirmation Bias
Just because a few other Tranq’d individuals were found by a bystander quick enough to not face long-term health problems, doesn’t mean Aspecticor won’t. Given his schedule he’s likely to be at home when it happens, Mr. Carney.
