Idk, it seems our country's to the point where "It's wrong to stereotype people or generalize them based on their race or religion" is an emotional appeal now and not, you know, moral.

Let's use some critical thinking here. Why do you think the parents of the slain Muslim soldier spoke at the DNC? What was their objective?

To throw Donald Trumps anti-Muslim rhetoric back in his face and accuse him of being fake in his patriotism because while they lost their son for name of this country, he's sacrificed nothing. I'm pretty sure I'm paraphrasing that line, but it's the most memorable moment in that speech.

So is that an emotional appeal. Yes. It's also a topical rebuttal to a point made by the other side.
