Oh ok. I thought it was a meme. Turns out it is hard hitting journalism.
Thanks.
It's from a David Sedaris article
the flight is lolita express
Its a pretty good analogy though, "can I interest you in the socially accepted mass murder, or something that is open about the harm it wilh do?"
It's both a false equivalency (between the two scenarios) and a false dichotomy (between the two options), if you want the names of the tricks
It's like he's never heard of someone passing on both options and saying "then I'd rather not eat right now" wtf? No when I'm on an airplane and they offer me 2 choices, pretzel or stroopwaffel, I'm obligated to eat the pretzel otherwise I'm endorsing the stroopwaffel reign of terror
