This strаtegy cаn wоrk in either directiоn. In оne direction, someone аccused of a major crime may try to diminish guilt by comparing his/her crime to some trivial offense, the argument then becoming If I'm guilty, then everyone else is too. An example of that might be ex-President Richard Nixon, who insisted the Watergate break-ins ordered by him, and resulting in his resignation, did not differ from the behavior of earlier Presidents. In the other direction, a writer who is trying to gather support against a "pet peeve"may try to elevate it into a major issue by comparing it to something vaguely similar which most people do regard as a serious offense-like arguing for a return to prohibition of drinking by equating someone who stops for a beer on the way home from work to a drunkard who can't even hold a job because of alcoholism.
