middle ground
You claimed that a compromise, or middle point, between two extremes must be the truth.
Much of the time the truth does indeed lie between two extreme points, but this can bias our thinking: sometimes a thing is simply untrue and a compromise of it is also untrue. Half way between truth and a lie, is still a lie.
Example: Holly said that vaccinations caused autism in children, but her scientifically well-read friend Caleb said that this claim had been debunked and proven false. Their friend Alice offered a compromise that vaccinations must cause some autism, just not all autism.
你觉得两个极端观点的妥协,或者说中间立场,肯定是对的。
虽然大多数时候,真理确实存在于两种极端的中间地带,但是你不能轻易的认为只要是处于中间立场的观点就一定是正确的。谎言和实话的中间地带依然是谎言。
例子:小红认为疫苗会造成儿童自闭症,孙越从科学研究的结论中得出结论认为疫苗不会造成儿童自闭症,小明认为两者观点的妥协——疫苗会造成儿童自闭症,但不是全部的儿童自闭症——才是正确的。小明犯了中间立场的谬误。
