Question

Which statement best explains why the evidence provided in the text is a fallacy? The speaker uses anecdotal evidence with phrases like ""back on the right track. "" The speaker uses a bandwagon statement by complaining that other nations prosper. The speaker uses an ad hominem argument by attacking an opponent’s honesty. The speaker uses a false dilemma by claiming to have the ideal plan.

Answer 1

Fallacy is the use of faulty arguments which are not valid and as such are rendered untrue because of the way they are presented in the argument. Some fallacies look valid, but are still fallacious because they do not satisfy an important logical premise.

As a result of this, we can see that there are various types of fallacy and they include:

• Fallacy of Hasty Generalisation
• Argumentum ad Baculum
• Argumentum ad Hominem
• Slippery Slope

For example, when we use Argumentum ad Baculum (appeal to force), we try to make use of force to silence a person who has made a very valid and logical argument.

For example, when you tell a person, "I will soon slap you if you do not close up your mouth" is an appeal to force or Argumentum ad Baculum
