Ex: "Pay no attention to her arguments against abortion. I happen to know that she had three
abortions her self!" ANS Ad Hominem


Manipulating an emotional response in place of a valid or compelling argument.


Ex"A soft drink company doesn't promote their product's taste or nutritional value. Instead, they say
that the drink make you feel happy! ANS Appeal to Emotion


When we draw a conclusion about a whole group based on an inadequate sample of the group.

Ex:"The news is fake because so much of the news is fake." ANS Circular reasoning


Arguing that a lack of evidence proves something.


Ex: "You know that scientists can't prove that UFO's do not visit the Earth, so it makes sense to
believe in them." ANS Appeal to Ignorance
