    all humans are animals

    all dogs are animals

    therefore humans are dogs

    not a very good argument imo

      You’re doing all A are in C, all B are in C =⟩ A is in B, which makes no sense and isn’t what they said.

      They said all A are in B, all B are in C =⟩ A are in C, which is true by the transitive property.

      All humans are animals

      All animals are Pokemon

      Therefore all humans are Pokemon

      All humans are animals All dogs are animals Not all animals are dogs Not animals are humans But all the animals in modern Pokemon are Pokemon So the question is Does animal == Pokemon If so human are Pokemon But if animal != Pokemon Then humans != Pokemon and human == animal
