Since you seemed to appreciate logical fallacies, your argument starts with an appeal to emotion [0], then ends with ad hominem [1]. There's no point in your argument, nor in your personal attack, since nobody denied the war or mention

The fact that the offer is still prominently displayed falls under "bait advertising". The fact that the offer's time limit is written in smaller text falls under "dark design patterns". All EU member states have ad
