Example Of A Fallacy Paper

I never paid attention to the fallacies that were presented in my life. They weren’t something you notice in life until you are forced to look back, then you begin to see little drops of them everywhere. These things you’ve accepted as truths and adapted to so well that you have to dig deep to find. The three fallacies I’ve decided to focus on is the appeal to force fallacy, the appeal to tradition fallacy, and the faulty sign fallacy. All of which I have noticed actually had a pretty big impact on my life.
The first fallacy I will analyze is the appeal to force fallacy. This fallacy is defined as a fallacy committed when one appeals to force or the threat of force to bring about the acceptance of a conclusion. The appeal to force fallacy

The appeal to tradition fallacy is when people assume something is better or right because it is traditional or has always been done. I’ve dealt with this fallacy a lot in my life. I’m a first-generation college student, and the second of five children to receive their high school diploma. When I was a child I always dreamed of going to college, my life always put a damper on my dreams but it was always something I knew I would do. After fighting tooth and nail just to get my high school diploma I was ready for college and I thought my decision was celebrated and it was until I needed help. From the moment I asked for help I got met with “why are you in school anyway?” or “none of us did it and we’re fine”. It became frowned upon. Even when they say they are proud of me every so often they tend to remind me that “Morris’ are survivors and we always have been”. They talk as if all we can be are survivors, instead of trying to understand that we can be so much

I am a relatively quiet. I tend to avoid most people because I am very nervous in most social situations. I am also pretty awkward and I really don’t like being touched for too long. Because of this people often think I’m rude, mean or that I don’t really like them but honestly, I just get uncomfortable very easily. I am actually friendly and when spoken to I will speak back, it just takes me a while to trust people. I’ve always been relatively shy, I was the type of kid that always hid, I never went to dances, and I didn’t do parties. People peg me as rude even when I don’t really mean to be but I do understand
