Hi @Jackbaz99 ,

As far as I know, the slicer is another type of filter, so we can't filter the slicer backwards by filtering the visual in Power BI. Only filters in filter fields or filters from other related slicers can impact the slicer. 

Here I suggest you to filter your visual by slicer.

And if you want to sync the filter from slicer to other pages, I suggest you to use Sync Slicer option.

You may refer to this offical blog to learn more details.
