Which logical fallacy often includes a premise that appeals to what is believed or done by the mainstream or the elite?
a. hasty generalization
b. popular appeal
c. faulty analogy
d. equivocation

B. popular appeal

The common logical fallacy that will include an appeal to something because the mainstream or elite is doing it is known as popular appeal. This can also be known as “bandwagon appeal.” For instance, an argument that includes this fallacy might suggest that something is right because everyone else is doing it. The popular appeal can be particularly effective because of how people tend to want to be part of the “in” crowd, and by nature will tend to do what everyone else is doing. Thus, it is especially important to be on the lookout for this when reading or listening to argumentative/persuasive messages in order to fall prey to fallacious reasoning and tactics.
