What would you make of this sort of argument? “We live in a dark world indeed when all of those people in Planet Fitness keep shedding pound after pound, while millions of other people are suffering from obesity.”

You might think, “Look, Watkins, of course it’s sad that lots of people are overweight, but you’re implying it’s the fault of the people who are losing weight. That doesn’t follow at all!”

And you’d be right. It’s totally illegitimate to contrast the success of some people with the failures of others, unless you can argue that their failure is the result of other people’s success.
