Mein Kampf [Hitler] & Common Facallies

today during class we went over some new information such as common fallacies.
well there are many common fallacies like:
-Hast Generalization
-Faulty Use of Authority
-Post Hoc or Doubtful Cause
-False Analogy
-Ad Hominem
-False Dilemma
-Slippery Slope
-Begging the Question
-Straw Man


so yeah in Adolf Hitler's On Nation And Race [Chapter 11of Mein Kampf]
i spotted a few of these Comman Fallacies.



"THERE are some truths, which are so obvious that for this very reason they are not seen or at least not recognized by ordinary people."
That quote would probably fall under the category of Ad Hominem.
Ad Hominem an attack on the person making the argument instead of the argument itself.
Basically Hitler was attacking humans [some humans in particular] for the reason being blinded and not seeing the truth.




"Every animal mates only with a member of the same species"
This would go under the category of a False Analogy.
A False Analogy is an analogy that is descriptive, but does not offer proof of a connection between the two things being compared. So the quote above is applying to the animal kingdom, but not with humans.
