    I’m appealing to OPs authority and not including a Fallacy in this comment.

    …

    Oh shit…

    You are doing a logical fallacy of assuming wrong based only on logical fallacies. I am downvoting you.

      You’ve assumed the OP is downvoting because of the wrongness of the argument rather than the lack of validity.

    Me: downvoting comments that technically follow logically but are annoying, pedantic, and lack important context.

    Downvoted: formal fallacy

    There’s no connection between premise and conclusion.

      No assumption was made on the accuracy of the argument only on the validity of the argument,therefore no fallacy was committed,. On the other hand you committed the Hasty generalization fallacy by assuming OP’s intent.

        Formal fallacies do not relate to the truth of either the premise or the conclusion but having valid form. Your argument just doesn’t follow. How is downvoting fallacies therefore doing your part.
