The slippery slope fallacy is a tricky one because it is a fallacy that is an assumption fallacy. It is a fallacy that has someone assumes that something will happen directly from another statement. A slippery slope fallacy can be when you assume something after a statement is said whether it is your own or someone else’s. An example of this would be when someone says “Dude if you get this job, then you will end up losing yourself in the work”. This is a slippery slope argument because just because this person gets this job the person who made the statement automatically directly assumes that he would end up losing himself in that job. This shows that a slippery slope fallacy is one that is hard to describe because it comes directly from the statement made so a reaction to a statement said in turn leaving you down a slippery slope of action and reaction.
