    Not only are those fallacies badly identified, it's also an argument from fallacy, AKA the infamous fallacy fallacy. Yeah it's a completely unserious way of arguing, just eternally elementary school-brained people.

      Understanding fallacies is a tool for crafting better arguments, and for destroying arguments resting on shaky grounds. You can't just point out that something is a fallacy, you still need to construct an actual counter-argument.
