Many people use logical fallacies in arguments. This is particularly common on social media. In this video, Dr Susan Oliver and Cindy the dog will be discussing the ad hominem fallacy, otherwise known as argument from fallacy, which occurs when, instead of addressing someone's argument or position, you irrelevantly attack the person or some aspect of the person who is making the argument. We see this fallacy a lot in the comments on our videos. If you see anyone using this fallacy, please share this video with them.
