15680375920 | Ad Hominem | Directly attacks someone's appearance, personal habits, or character rather than focusing on the merit of the issue at hand. This fallacy implies that if something is wrong with this person, then anything they say must be wrong. | 0 | |
15680375921 | bandwagon appeal | Appeal to the popularity of the item, person, etc., as a reason for accepting it. Many people believe it or agree with it, so it must be true. | 1 | |
