association fallacy

An illegitimate child between ad hominem (because association fallacy focused on the PERSON or PEOPLE instead of the ARGUMENT), appeal to emotion, hasty generalization, questionable cause fallacy (because "labels" associated to someone or something can determine the degree of "truth"), and red herring (because it deliberately derails the argument)

Association Fallacy has two kinds:
1. Guilt by association
2. Honour by association
Example of association fallacy:

"You're Neo-Nazi, therefore your argument must be wrong" (Godwin's Law/Reductio ad Hitlerum)
"You are leftist liberal special snowflake, therefore your argument is dismissed" (Red-bait/Red-tag)
"You're the expert, therefore your opinion must be right" (Honour by association)

How to cure people with Bill Gates syndrome:

Robin Hood

The practice ran by Welfare State, when goverment set the irrational (too high) taxes for workers and enterprises (the rich) to pay no-lifers, immigrant snowflakes, and parent's basement resident (The Poor)

Ponzi Scheme at it's finest
Robin Hood mechanism reminds me to Ponzi/Pyramid Scheme, but inverted (the rich must pay the poor)

If no one could pay the irrational taxes, such as due to natural disaster or pandemy like Coronavirus/COVID19, then a country will be doomed (collapse)
