Building a new viniapp, inspired by the bias quiz by @vrn.eth. In this day and age, critical thinking is a key capability. For critical thinking you need to understand biases, but you also need to understand fallacies. Fallacies are unsound arguments, that pretend to proof a point. However, any conclusion based on arguments from the fallacy categorie is not logically correct. There are many catgeorised fallacies, that are very often used to make you think that if A is the case, it must follow that B is the case. But as said above, that is never the actual case when fallacies are used. They are often used by people who know they are not telling you something that is true, but who want you to believe something, often so that they can make some gain at your cost.
