Attempting to support a narrative or argument with facts that don’t support the narrative or argument. The distinguishing characteristic of the fact-to-fiction fallacy is the accusation that those who reject your conclusion are rejecting the facts.
Examples:
- FACT: On average, 150,000 people die every day around the world. It is crazy to panic about a virus that, at its peak, was killing 8,000 people per day. But what else can be expected from a moron like you who rejects facts?
