Comments on: What?!?! https://www.airbnbhell.com/what/ Uncensored Airbnb Stories from Hosts & Guests Tue, 13 Sep 2016 05:50:32 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Michael D https://www.airbnbhell.com/what/comment-page-1/#comment-11423 Tue, 13 Sep 2016 05:50:32 +0000 http://www.airbnbhell.com/what/#comment-11423 This argument is known as “appeal to incredulity” – you’re saying that because you don’t believe it, it’s not true. You attempt to bolster your argument with a combo fallacy – appeal to personal experience and begging the question. “Since I’ve had nothing but positive experiences, everyone who has had negative experiences don’t know how to use the site.” Your personal experience does not define reality and the assumption that those who have negative experiences don’t know what they’re doing is completely baseless.

I’m glad things have worked out for you, but allegations that others are lying or are stooges for another company hopefully temper the opinions of those that read your comment. Logic is hard, I know, but without it we end up telling people that they’re full of it because we can’t be bothered to deconstruct our own preconceived notions.
