Question

what is the fallacy

If I don’t get your vote, imagine what could happen: there is no one to improve the school’s recycling program, which means that tons of plastic will end up in the trash, leading to our school being overflowing with waste, the sea animals will perish, and we’ll be the laughingstock of all the schools in the area!

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The fallacy in this statement is known as a slippery slope fallacy. The argument assumes that a small action (not getting a vote) will lead to a chain of events that progressively becomes worse and worse (overflowing school with waste, perishing sea animals, and being the laughingstock of all schools in the area). The connection between not getting a vote and these extreme consequences is not logically or causally justified.
