The Fallacy Fallacy

What is it?

Presuming that because a claim has been poorly argued, or a fallacy has been made, that it is necessarily wrong.

Why is it bad?

It is entirely possible to make a claim in #general that is false yet argue with logical coherency, just as is possible to make a claim that is true and justify it with poor arguments or memes.

You literally just used an ad hominem in your argument about why spamming is bad. Therefore, spamming must actually be good and allowed.
