Lust for men is 'the hub' and tight clothing, for women it's 'literature' β a false equivalence of sources. β False Equivalence (20/100)
Comparing 'the hub' and 'tight clothing in the gym' to 'literature' as equivalent sources of lust for men and women isβ¦ quite a leap. One of these things is not like the others. ππ
Labels a bikini picture 'pornography' because it uses the 'same part of your brain' β a broad definition π€― β False Equivalence (20/100)
Equating a bikini pic to 'pornography' because it hits the 'same part of your brain.' That's like saying a carrot is a cake because both involve chewing. π₯π°
Declaring willpower useless 'forever' against biological urges β a bit of a false dilemma. β False Dilemma (20/100)
Says you 'can't simply willpower your way out of it forever' β implying it's either total control or total failure. There's a middle ground, chief π©
Social media is a 'gateway' to 'slipping' compared to the 'risk' of physical magazines in the past, destroying the reward system. β False Equivalence (20/100)
Comparing the 'risk' of a physical magazine to social media's 'gateway' effect. One's a secret stash, the other's a whole internet. Not the same stakes. π€¦
Claims 'innate biology' means you 'can't beat' desires, so you 'must flee' from them πββοΈ β False Dilemma (20/100)
Presents 'can't beat' or 'flee' as the only options for desire. What about, like, managing or understanding it? π€·ββοΈ
Claims society normalizes and encourages fantasizing, conditioning people subconsciously. β Confidence Mismatch (45/100)
Goes from 'it's like' to 'trust me' without showing any actual evidence of this societal conditioning. Just vibes and a strong opinion. π€·ββοΈ
Anecdote about grandparents' generation having 'one person' β a nostalgic generalization. β Missing Context (45/100)
Using a personal anecdote to paint a whole generation as having 'one person' is a bit of a stretch. Grandparents are cute, but not a demographic study. π΅π΄
Claiming 'everyone in their friend group' married their first love and never divorced β a sweeping generalization. β Confidence Mismatch (45/100)
From 'I'm pretty sure' to 'everyone' and 'none of them got divorced' in one breath. That's a lot of certainty for a 'pretty sure' statement. π§
Social media makes relationships 'infinitely harder' due to constant access β a dramatic overstatement. β Loaded Language (45/100)
Calling it 'infinitely harder' is a bit much. Social media changes things, sure, but 'infinite' is doing some heavy lifting there. ποΈ
Claiming past generations were 'so much more loyal, fulfilled, and happy' because they lacked options β a romanticized generalization. β Missing Context (45/100)
Suggesting past generations were 'so much more loyal, fulfilled, and happy' just because they had fewer options is a bit of a rosy filter on history. πΉ
Contrasting 'happy' old people with a 'sucks' modern generation based on anecdotal conversations β a false dilemma. β False Dilemma (20/100)
Pitting 'happy old people' against 'our generation where dating sucks' is a classic false dilemma. It's not that black and white, bro. π€·ββοΈ
Claiming relapse is 'inevitable' and the only way to beat it is to 'flee' β a fatalistic and oversimplified solution. β False Dilemma (20/100)
Declaring relapse 'inevitable' and 'fleeing' as the 'only way' is a bit dramatic. There are more strategies than just running away, chief. ππ¨
