The classic "you are proving my point" fallacy—a form of Argumentum Ad Te where the responder claims that the opponent's response, tone, or very engagement demonstrates the truth of the original position. "You're proving my point by getting angry." "Your response proves exactly what I was saying." The move turns any engagement into evidence against you: if you respond emotionally, you're proving their point about emotionalism; if you respond calmly, you're proving their point about detachment; if you don't respond, you're proving their point about avoidance. It's a rhetorical trap with no exit—any response is reframed as confirmation. The fallacy lies in treating engagement as evidence, rather than addressing what's actually said.

Argumentum Ad Probationem "I calmly explained why I disagreed. Response: 'See? You're proving my point by being so defensive.' That's Argumentum Ad Probationem—using my engagement as evidence, not addressing my arguments. Defensive? I was calm. But even if I were defensive, that doesn't address my points. It's a trap: any response proves them right."
