Logical Double Standards

A fallacy where someone applies logical standards inconsistently—accusing opponents of fallacies while committing the same ones, demanding evidence they don't provide, requiring certainty they don't practice. The classic form: accusing someone of "jumping to conclusions" while leaping to your own; crying "ad hominem" while attacking character; demanding "evidence" while ignoring counter-evidence. Logical Double Standards reveal that the invocation of logic is often strategic, not principled—logic as weapon, not tool. The double standard is the point: one rule for them, another for us.
