False analogy isn’t a deflection, it’s a logical fallacy.

Because you don't agree doesn't make the legitimate callout (i.e., victim-blaming “what were you wearing” vs. calling someone “unhinged” after they've endured repeated abuse/stress) a logical fallacy. Rather it positions you in opposition.

Everything you disagree with isn't incorrect.
