Association fallacy

[Evmetro]

I see many references in this forum to guilt by association. Before one can legitimately throw out such an accusation, it is critical that he understands "association fallacy" as well.

Ten points to anybody who can briefly explain how association fallacy relates to political discussion.

Sorry, but I feel pretty secure in being uncomfortable with a person who is a member of the Nazi party. In order to be one, he has to have certain beliefs which conflict with mine. Association can be a fallacy, but it is not always. Actually associating a person with a group they choose to be of, is an accurate way of getting a basic understanding about them.

Here we go again. It never fails.

I predict Evmetro will post some babbling piece of bullshit and when people reply to point that out, he will respond with a juvenile “I told you so!”

Thank you in advance for proving me correct.”

Wouldn’t you like to just do this shit in a mirror and do both parts?

So saying things like "Obama supporter = communist" and "Trump-supporter = anti-American" fall into your fallacy here?

I'm not in favor of local governments promoting religious displays in public areas. I've been told this indicates that I hate Christians
and wish to persecute them. Does this satisfy your criteria for association fallacy?

I am glad to see that all the lefty children have read about association fallacy. I am not surprised with all the juvenile comments, I am just glad you guys are aware of it.
