There are many fallacies used to sway an audience, but I’ve focused this lesson on 10 of the most common leaps in logic, including:
• Hasty Generalization
• Faulty Causality
• Either/Or (False Dichotomy)
• Slippery Slope
• Bandwagon
• Sentimental Appeal
• Scare Tactics
• Appeal to False Authority
• Ad Hominem
• Straw Man
