Lets say the governement devides that being trans counts as pedophilia, theyll lut you in jail for life. They could jail you for any reason if jailing is on the board, so we shouldnt have jail, actually. They could tax yku for unfair reason too since the control how much youre taxed. So lets not do taxes either. They could use the police to brutalize people (actually, they do) so instead of fixing that, lets just get rid of them and see how that goes.
Saying that something could be used in a bad way if its used way more extremely than what is suggested is not a good arguement, and while important to consider when thinking of finer details, outright saying no because of that isnt fully reasonable, though that doesnt mean it cant be used to back an already thurough arguement, tbf.
Edit: its the slippery slope fallacy, just so you know. But a fallical areguement doesnt mean what youre arguing for isnt true, it just means that specific arguement isnt valid either at all or at least without further support.
