Swimmer's Body Illusion Deep Dive
Ever wonder why copying successful people's habits doesn't always lead to similar results? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into the fascinating world of the "Swimmer's Body Illusion" - a cognitive bias that might be secretly sabotaging your path to success.
From Olympic athletes to tech billionaires, we'll unpack why success stories often hide an invisible truth: what looks like pure cause-and-effect usually isn't. You'll discover why Harvard's impressive graduation rates might not tell the whole story, and why those inspiring "dropout to billionaire" tales deserve a second look.
Join us as we explore how to recognize this sneaky bias in your own thinking and learn practical strategies...

    Your first example of circular reasoning isn't very good because lying isn't ontologically synonymous with untrustworthiness. A better example would be "She always lies because she never tells the truth", where the supporting argument is identical to the conclusion. Also worthy to note is that truth through circular reasoning isn't necessarily wrong, nor uncommon. For example, when the average person perceives existence, he understands his basic senses to exist. With what? His basic senses, therefore, his reasoning for the things around him to exist is circular. That doesn't really make it wrong as long as the things he perceives mean something to him, but that is a whole other philosophical topic involving existentialism and epistemology. I am just using it as an example.

    There were no ad hominem fallacies in the clip. There were a lot of personal attacks, but a logical fallacy isn´t the same as "a bad argument" or "a non-argument". It´s specifically an argument that fails for logical reasons. As your definition at the beginning correctly states, this fallacy is about irrationally rejecting an argument based on nothing but the person making it. But Homer actually addresses the only argument from the other guy with a real counter argument ("that´s impossibe" - "not if we hire more men"). Beyond that it´s just confusion on one side and insults on the other. At best you can accuse Homer of poisoning the well, which might be seen as a subtype of ad hominem arguments, were you let people make the fallacious reasoning on their own by priming them to distrust a person.

      @LegendaryZet 6 месяцев назад

      If you don't have the evidence to support it, even if you made that argument, it's still a fallacy. It's not about whether or not it happens, it's more of the probability. Also, many unlikely predictions are constantly made, some of them are going to eventually happen. Such as "This stock or cryptocurrency will make you insanely rich", so many of those predictions are made that some of them turns out to be true.

However, people also use fallacies to so they don't need to give their argument any substance. The slipper slope fallacy as explained in this video. "If we allow this to happen, then eventually all of that will happen". There's really nothing that can be done about this other than pointing out when someone mislabels a genuine argument as a fallacy. This won't stop them from calling an argument a fallacy, their followers will still agree with the fallacy because it falls in line with what they already believe. Are you serious about taking down street signs because of some association with homophobia? I wanna look into that, cuz that seems far too wild to be true

      ​​@@psychout7 Bart's behavior is directly related Marge's (and Homer's) parenting decisions. In a Red Herring there has to be a change of subject to distract from the issue at hand. If you try to find the root cause of a problem that's not a red herring. That's addressing the problem directly at the source. That's problem solving. Red Herring is more like when Trump talks about the millions of illegals the democrats are allowing to crossing the border and how that's destroying the country and the economy but the democrats just deflect by saying Trump is a racist or that he paid Stormy Daniels or that he questioned the 2020 election results.

It may be an example of cognitive dissonance, but Mr Van Houten isn't making an argument here, and so cannot be using a fallacy.
