The "fallacy fallacy" is valid for itself, though:
> since the fallacy fallacy is itself a fallacy, it cannot be used to label an argument's conclusion as false without committing it in the process. "You have used the fallacy fallacy, therefore you are wrong"

Maybe so but I struggle to understand how, I must admit. In case you would care to elaborate I would be interested.
But unless you will argue that "logical thinking" is the correct term in this case I will submit that you have delivered a faulty argument yourself (since you invalidate my whole comment and not just the relevant part). Not sure which logical fallacy that represents though ...
Your comment is an example of the fallacy fallacy.
