Guys, at this rate I don’t think the revolution’s going to happen anytime soon.

    It’s only a fallacy when there is not evidence given that each step leads to the next. A slippery slope argument is perfectly valid when evidence is provided.The fallacy is in the implicit and unexamined assumption that a must lead to b.

    E.g

    Taking heroin once is obviously a slippery slope to becoming a heroin addict because taking it once causes you to crave taking it again.
