Ad Populum

When people claim something is automatically right because a large number of people are saying it. You can have a scenario with a hundred idiots and all their mates vs 1 clever person on their own. The karma system on reddit is probably the most egregious implementation of this idea tbh since people blindly assume upvotes = 100% correct in all scenarios

Person A: that game has bad reviews so it must suck. All my mates said it suck so it must be true

Person B: have you played it yourself? Sounds like Ad Populum to me
Person A: huh?

Reductio Ad Ursidae

Reductio ad Ursidae: A satirical rhetorical tactic used to invalidate men's actions or arguments by making constant and often absurd comparisons to bears. For example, This technique highlights the irrationality of these comparisons by suggesting that men's behavior is so lacking that even a bear, known for its raw destructiveness, would act more considerately. However, in reality, a bear would cause far more damage and chaos than a man could.

“A bear wouldn’t leave the toilet seat up”

“Don’t pull the bear card”

“Excuse me it’s Reductio ad ursidae to be correct”
