Fallacies for the fallen

In hitlers book mein kahmp, we find many fallacies in his claims made in chapter 11.

  • In the opening statements of chapter 11, hitler is telling us that people can't see what is obviously in front of us. In addition, he is implying that he is better than us the man and the poeple in general. He is saying that we are blind to see what is right before our eyes, which allows him to say that he is better than us, ultimately stating that he is above the man. This is calle d an Ad Hominen.
  • Another big fallacy is seen in his assumption of the arian race being selected as the top race. Through Faluty Use of Authority, he tries to prove that mother nature intended the world ot be ruled by the arian race. Therefore, he is referring to a racist god that wants a corrupt worldfull of hate.
