If you're on a Meta platform and are being bombarded with ad hominem arguments from supposed MAGA supporters, I want to remind you if two things:

1. You're on a Meta platform. That's normal there.

2. Those making fallacious arguments are often bots or paid to create rage bait. Ignore at will.

Novo Nordisk does not want to lose its customer base to generic semaglutide.

"You're an original. So is your Ozempic!"

I've seen that ad over 50 times now.

It's such a fallacious argument.

I think my favourite rebuttal to the "watchmaker argument"; ie: a complicated thing requires a creator, isn't pointing out that the argument is fallacious but pointing out that creation is also complicated so creators must be more complicated than their creations, ie: god must also be a creation.
