Spread & Usage
How did Bidoof’s Law spread?
“Bidoof’s law” was often reposted and referred to by users on the internet, especially Twitter and Tumblr, stating that if someone posts and reposts adult entertainment, they forfeit their legitimacy for any argument, no matter how clever and stylish they are in their methods.
This, however resulted in great controversy, as the law itself is argumentum ad hominem, which confuses the validity of the idea with the validity of the person, advocating the idea.
In later years, several parodies were made of the law, reflecting on the idiocy of judging someone by what kind of adult entertainment they are watching.
