Logical fallacies EXPOSED! #6 The appeal to (false) authority fallacy
Many people use logical fallacies in arguments. This is particularly common on social media. In this video, Dr Susan Oliver and Cindy the dog will be discussing the appeal to authority fallacy, and, in particular, the appeal to false authority fallacy. The appeal to authority fallacy occurs when people insist that a claim is true simply because an authority or expert on the issue said it was true, without offering any other supporting evidence. False authorities covered in this video include Tess Lawrie, Peter McCullough, Robert Malone, and Poornima Wagh. If you see anyone using this fallacy, please share this video with them.
