You really just said that appeal to authority is only fallacious if the authority itself is false?

Okay, you just lost all credibility as an educated person of any kind.

Thanks and have a nice day.

You may want to actually take a college-level course in Logic. Hell man, you could even Google it.

Yes, the logical fallacy of Appeal to Authority is only a fallacy if the person is not an actual authority.

Otherwise, complete morons who know absolutely nothing about what they're arguing about could simply say in response to an expert who is correcting them "you are Appealing to Authority, so even though I have no freakin' clue what I'm saying, I'm right and you're wrong".

As such, you never had any credibility, and remain unable to discredit me without some actual facts or subject matter expertise.
