A false dilemma, also referred to as false dichotomy, is an informal fallacy based on a premise that erroneously limits what options are available. The source of the fallacy lies not in an invalid form of inference but in a false premise. This premise has the form of a disjunctive claim: it asserts that one among a number of alternatives must be true. This disjunction is problematic because it oversimplifies the choice by excluding viable alternatives. For example, a false dilemma is committed when it is claimed that, "Stacey spoke out against capitalism; therefore, she must be a communist". One of the options excluded is that Stacey may be neither communist nor capitalist. False dilemmas often have the form of treating two contraries, which may both be false, as contradictories, of which one is necessarily true. Various inferential schemes are associated with false dilemmas, for example, the constructive dilemma, the destructive dilemma or ..
i said this last time something got posted like this, ill repeat myself in far less words in a much less elegant way.
You should not have a defacto issue with "pedophiles." The group you should have a defacto issue with is "child sex offenders." the vast majority of sexual abuse/assault/etc committed upon children is done by people that dont even find children to be attractive, they dont do it for the sexual pleasure they do it for the power rush, children just happened to be easy victims to get them that power rush. As far as we can tell the vast majority of pedophiles never cause harm to children, most are good moral people that have something wrong with their head that causes them extreme mental health issues and self hatred, as stupid as the statement sounds, the most common trauma caused by pedophilia is suffered by the pedophile themselves.
Categorical hatred for pedophiles isnt warranted, Categorical hatred for people that harm kids is.
But it is obviously possible to be borh
