While it's true that there is a certain level of anonymity when it comes to the internet, that doesn't mean that there are no consequences when you abuse your ability to connect with people. | ||

Notice how its recognized in philosophy as a fallacy and thus invalid? Argue the topic, not some wildly speculative result years down the line... Slippery slope does not automatically mean invalid. There are valid and logical slippery slope arguments. For example, I think, TV makes violence cool, children watch TV, they are desensitized to violence, they are more likely to find violence bad when they grow up, and are thus more likely to BE violent. | ||

And since the advent of the television, and its hayday in the 1960s, crime rates have gone down. With zero evidence to back up that claim whatsoever, it holds little to no weight on its own, and is thus a fallacy. | ||
