Can you outsmart the fallacy that divided a nation? – Elizabeth Cox

Explore the middle ground fallacy, which assumes that the truth is always a compromise between two extreme opposing positions.

—

It’s 1819. The US is preparing to make Missouri and Maine new states. One representative insists that slavery shouldn’t be allowed in any new state. Another believes it should be a state’s right to choose. A compromise is proposed: slavery will be allowed in Missouri and prohibited in Maine. Can you spot the problem with this compromise? Elizabeth Cox explores the middle ground fallacy.
