Is there a name for a logical fallacy where actions are claimed to be morally equivalent if merely their shapes are the same and regardless of the details?
I see it all the time on the Internet:
- Atheists are "just as bad as" [insert religious group with millennia-old history of atrocities.] -- Just because they both try to convince you of something.
- Politician A is "just as corrupt as" Politician B. -- Nevermind that A just gave his cousin a job, while B gave away $500B in contracts to his sponsors.
