Downvoted: formal fallacy

There's no connection between premise and conclusion.

[-] an_onanist@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

No assumption was made on the accuracy of the argument only on the validity of the argument,therefore no fallacy was committed,. On the other hand you committed the Hasty generalization fallacy by assuming OP's intent.

Formal fallacies do not relate to the truth of either the premise or the conclusion but having valid form. Your argument just doesn't follow. How is downvoting fallacies therefore doing your part.
