Fallacy of opposition refers to the mistaken belief that just because two sides of an argument oppose each other, one must be right and the other wrong. This overlooks the possibility that both arguments could be flawed or that there can be a compromise or middle ground. It's important to critically evaluate each argument on its own merits rather than assuming one is correct based solely on its opposition.
