Guilt Tripping

Making someone for felling guilty for not doing something

Guy 1: "Guys I miss Izzie"
Guy 2: "What happened to Izzie?"
Guy 1: "Nothing i just miss her because she always has plans with her boyfriend"
That's guilt tripping (I didn't know how to include the word)

death guilt

When your parents guilt you into hanging out with them because they say you will regret it later if you don’t. Type of manipulation.

Dad: “hey want to go to - with me?” You: “not really” Dad: “you’ll regret that later” you in your head: “he is death guilting me”

Fallacy of Guilt by Support

The error of condemning an individual or group solely based on their association with or support for another entity deemed objectionable, without examining the nature, degree, or reason for that support. It assumes perfect ideological alignment and ignores the possibility of partial agreement, strategic alliance, nuanced critique, or simply being misinformed. It's a shortcut to moral judgment that prevents dialogue.

Example: "Person A donated to a charity that also, unknowingly, funded a controversial speaker one time. Therefore, Person A is a bad person who supports that speaker's worst ideas." This Fallacy of Guilt by Support bypasses Person A's actual intentions and the complexity of the charity's work to impose a blanket condemnation based on a distant, indirect link.
