When you only under the label of a logical fallacy rather than the content,you miss things like the fact that I did not hinge any arguments on "human nature". I described a well documented cycle that has repeated many times in history. Making a spurious comment about that pattern being human nature does not invalidate documented trends in history.

When history is basically the story of "And then this asshole did something that got a lot of people killed. Things settled down again until the next asshole." it is perfectly fair to label consistently repeating historic cycles as "human nature".

That said, I do commend you on using logic and recognizing fallacies. That's not an easy thing to do, but just in the attempt you're doing considerably better than most people.

Fallacious thinking is fallacious thinking.

I just didn’t want anyone to take what you were saying seriously is all.
