I've struggled with this before on this site. People love to pull out fallacies. But they forget that fallacies are only fallacies if they are used as a counterargument. And even when they are used in such a way, the other side then has to deal with fallacy fallacy. You can't immediately discredit an argument just because it contains a fallacy.
