Question

5 Identify the type of faulty reasoning in each example. Anyone who does not recycle is dumb and selfish. Select the best answer from the choices provided.

A. false dilemma
B. distraction
C. stereotype
D. personal attack

Answer 1

I believe that this would be a personal attack. It’s obviously not a distraction , doesn’t fit the description of a stereotype, there is no either/or for it to be a dilemma, and personal attack makes most sense.
