Question

What does a slippery slope fallacy do? A. It overstates or exaggerates an opponents's claims. B. It attacks the character of the opponent rather than dealing with the issue. C. It uses celebrities or famous names to support an argument. D. It makes conclusions based upon information that is false.

Answer 1

Answer:

I don't really like the options it gives but, the slippery slope fallacy is when someone uses an event as an example and explains how it could lead to very unfortunate scenarios. For example, if we allow X to happen, X can lead to Y which can lead to Z. Then that means if X happens, it will cause Z. I would say the closest answer with the options given would be A.
