It is as obviously a deflection fallacy as your "with us or against us" argument is a false choice fallacy. That is the point I was trying to make.
Regardless, I'll not be demonized just because I happen to be a man in an industry that is heavily male dominated. I am a good person, I should not have to argue that point, and I certainly do not need to write another aimless anecdotal editorial on an issue I have no personal experience with.
Ah, I forgot about the rule that just because a famous person makes a fallacial argument, it is forevermore held as truth and above refute.
Alright, let's play your game. I concede that point, and I admit that due to my inaction on this social rights issue in the face of your radical argumentation, I am in fact a monster.
I shall therefore quit my job, give away all of my belongings, and travel the world. I will be a slave to any cause that will have me, forfeiting my freedom and my livelihood to further any cause, until there is no more injustice in the world.
But remember, if you do not do the same you will not only be a monster like me, but a hypocrite, as well.

I’m glad to see you're taking all this so seriously.
