    all humans are animals

    all dogs are animals

    therefore humans are dogs

    not a very good argument imo

      You’re doing all A are in C, all B are in C =⟩ A is in B, which makes no sense and isn’t what they said.

      They said all A are in B, all B are in C =⟩ A are in C, which is true by the transitive property.

      All humans are animals

      All animals are Pokemon

      Therefore all humans are Pokemon
