    And here you are attempting to read minds yourself. You literally listed assassin for an alcoholic and made that line all on your own. So yeah, it is fallacy. That is Exactly false attribute fallacy.

      English is not my first language. That said, I think you’ve read “assassin turned alcoholic” wrong for a few times by now.

          Sigh. How does saying that a certain assassin has turned alcoholic make a one-to-one association between assassin and alcoholic?

          Also technically “assassin” is a bastardization of “hashshasheen” or something meaning “hashish smokers”, which was a slur for members of Nizari-Ismaili sect, which is funny in the context of your claim.
