If there is no money to pay taxes, it will be difficult for the state to pay teachers. If a teacher has no salary, he will not be in the mood to teach, which will affect the future of our motherland. China will be difficult to take off, and the Chinese nation will degenerate into a barbaric nation. When the Chinese nation becomes a barbaric nation, the United States will suspect that our country has weapons of mass destruction.
If there is a big hole in the atmosphere, the temperature of the earth will rise, the icebergs at the poles will melt, the icebergs will melt, the water level of the earth will rise, and all mankind will be drowned. Because humans drowned, their radioactive weapons floated into the universe, and the sun caused their own chain reaction, which then led to the destruction of the universe.
Xiaohong believes that butchers kill pigs now and will kill people in the future. Xiaohong committed the fallacy of landslide.
Xiaoming thinks that animal experiments are detrimental to respect for life. If life is not respected, violence can be tolerated, and society will become a battlefield, which will be the end of civilization. Xiaoming committed the fallacy of landslide.
Extended data:
The landslide fallacy is an informal fallacy. Using a series of causal inferences, the causal intensity of each link is exaggerated and unreasonable conclusions are drawn.
Some advocates classify the continuum fallacy as the landslide fallacy, but it is rarely used recently.
Landslide fallacy is a logical fallacy, that is, a series of causal relationships are unreasonably used to turn "possibility" into "inevitability" in order to reach a desired conclusion.
But in fact, every inference has many different possibilities, just extending a possibility to inevitability at will, and then connecting these unreasonable causal relationships in series to infer an irrelevant result, which is the landslide fallacy. The concept of "leapfrog" appeared in the Cultural Revolution, which is also a typical example of landslide fallacy.
The typical form of landslide fallacy is "If A happens, then B will happen, then C will happen, then D will happen, and then Z will happen", and then it is usually inferred that "Z should not happen, so we should not allow A to happen". The causality from A to B, B to C, C to D, ... are all like "slopes", and the process from A to Z is like a landslide.
The problem of landslide fallacy is that the causal intensity of each slope is different. Some causal relationships are only possible, not inevitable, some causal relationships are quite weak, and some causal relationships are even unknown or lack of evidence. Therefore, even if A occurs, it is impossible to slide all the way to Z, and Z is not inevitable (or probable).
On the other hand, if there is enough evidence to prove that every "slope" has a reasonable and powerful causal relationship, it does not constitute a landslide fallacy.
