Entry 4
Argument Structures and Fallacies

Item 1: Cuxi advertisement


Source:


The slogan: “Cute is Cuxi”

-   Fallacy of ambiguity because there is not any clear and logical definition of “Cute”.

-    Structural fallacy.

-    Analysis:

If you use a cuxi motor, you look cute (If A, then B)

If you do not use a cuxi (Not A)

Therefore, you won’t look cute (Therefore, not B)

=> Denying the antecedent. (Actually, you may still look cute, even you don’t own a motor like this)
