I like how you totally didn't understand the metaphor used to point out the flaw in logic. That or you are just ignoring it because you don't want to believe this guy is wrong.

Denial is a powerful thing.

Let me break it down for you. The weird guy is saying

If A then B, if B then C, if C then D must be true.
If D is true, then C is true, if C is true then B is true, if B is true then A is true.

The problem is that there was a jump from C to D that was a fallacy.
