    Once, I was called a “debate pervert” and then banned from a community with “debate pervert” given as the reason.

    Why?

    I dared to point out that a user’s comment was full of logical fallacies.

    They hate that, because there’s no way to argue back against it.

      Fallacy fallacy: only because it contains a fallacy (or a bunch) the argument isn’t necessarily void.

      Still stacking fallacies isn’t usually a sign of a good and or valid argument.

        It wasn’t a fallacy fallacy. Their entire argument, nay, their entire identity, was based on a foundation of logical fallacies.

        And no, their argument was definitely not valid in any way.

          Moving the goalpost fallacy. You wrote in your comment to which I replied that no argument can be made against pointing out that someone’s arguments contains fallacies, which is not true.

          I wasn’t present as you got hurt arguing on the Internet so I couldn’t anticipate that you were up against someone who’s “entire identity was based on logical fallacies” (ad hominem).

        I laughed when I first read it. I still have no idea what it means.

        Got lots of that, too. It’s like speaking to a 4 year-old

        I don’t see you actually countering his statement, just throwing random sentences out.
