      Jennifer Gunter Retweeted Dr. Zubin Damania

      I watched the whole thing. It is ill researched propaganda. Also, medical students are not experts so maybe entertain the idea you had no idea what you were looking at. And they are fetal parts not baby parts. Why do you believ vaccine science and not repro health science?https://twitter.com/ZDoggMD/status/1131908757401755649 …

      It started OK, but went right off the rails in the second half, pretty much everything after @ZDoggMD asks, "What does ZDoggMD think of abortion?"

      I disagree. He started by saying he was going to bring the two sides together. As if one side - abortion is healthcare - is wrong.pic.twitter.com/1QYtzhjddW

      Fair enough. I did forget to mention that whenever I hear the bit about dragging "both sides" together (as if the middle MUST be the most reasonable option), I groan. Would he say the same about provaxers and antivaxers? Cancer quacks and oncologists?

      There's a named logical fallacy to describe that beginning.

          Gold Mean fallacy, or argument to moderation. If it’s common enough to deserve a name, there’s probably a reason. It may seem intuitive or attractive to avoid conflict, but there are cases like those you mentioned where there's no middle ground. There’s only correct or not.

          Or just "balance fallacy" https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Balance_fallacy …

          It has multiple names: fallacy of moderation, the golden mean fallacy, etc.
