It's not an argument. It's intimidation wearing an argument's clothes. That's the Appeal to Force fallacy. Kids run into it constantly - at school, at home, online, in friendships.

So on March 23, Hitler's elite troops - the SA (the Brownshirts) and SS (the Blackshirts) - surrounded parliament and intimidated the deputies. His men lined the walls inside too, creating an atmosphere of fear. They filled the galleries, glaring down at the delegat… [truncated]
