    Slippery slope argument → False dilemma

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A slippery slope argument can distort the available options by positing a chain of consequences. A false dilemma does so by restricting the alternatives. Each calls for a different test.

    False dilemma → Framing

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A false dilemma presents a situation as a choice among too few options. Looking at the framing reveals which options the wording brings into view. Showing that the dilemma is false also requires identifying a relevant alternative.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A false dilemma limits the options under discussion. A straw man argument changes the position that is being challenged. Both can distort a debate by different means.

    False dilemma → Category error

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A false dilemma restricts the available choices. A category error attributes a property where that kind of property does not apply. The first calls for reconsidering the options, the second for reconsidering what the question assumes about its subject.
