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)

Gay By Association

A descriptor for straight people who have almost exclusively queer friends. This doesn't mean they are actually queer. It is a way friends satirize they are the straight minority in the group because it is the opposite of what occurs in society. Usually, queer people are minorities.

Sometimes used to describe straight allies.

**Doesn't mean they are gay. Satirical only.**
Person: Is your friend Steve gay?
Queer friend: He's gay by association.
