Conservative trolls and dumb inbreds are tweeting 'Believe ALL women' when it comes to Avenatti
Believe All Women!’ — Trump Jr., Other Conservatives React To Avenatti Arrest
It was never "believe all women", it was "believe women". Conservatives made it into "all women" as a way of strawmanning the argument.
It means take women seriously when they make a serious allegation against someone, and investigate. An investigation should happen here, and will.
This is the same tactic they use for everything
Black Lives Matter // All Lives Matter
Believe Women // Believe all women
Ban guns // Ban all guns
Let refugees in // Let all refugees in
It's called an Appeal to the Extremes, a misuse of Reductio Ad Absurdum.
Usually, people use this because they're dicks and are intentionally trying to shove a fallacious argument into something that sounds reasonable. It's what I like to call "The argument of the dicks", because it tends to be used by people wanting to be quibbling dicks.
