My talk is devoted to one of the pressing issues of modern society - logical fallacies. Logical fallacies are flawed arguments made unintentionally or on purpose in a discussion to trick an opponent. The consequences of uncontrolled use of logical fallacies are bias and escalation which lead eventually to hate speech and polarization of the society. We will define logical fallacies and discuss the most prominent examples.
