It’s not a fallacy when we can see the slope being actively oiled up right now. Hate speech laws and policies being used to target dissenting political opinions, tech companies using their power to put their thumb on the scale in elections, health emergencies to curb basic civil liberties, etc. And generally any law and policy should be looked at with the optic of how is it going to be used in the worst possible bad faith because ultimately it will. I remember the UK using its anti-terrorist act powers against Iceland during the 2008 financial crisis.
