Question

@whitemonsterbunny17
The basic theme of this appeal is that "everyone else is doing it, and so should you."

When a propagandist warns disaster will result if the audience does not follow a particular course of action.

This technique uses a celebrity to endorse a specific product.

This technique links a person, or idea, to a negative symbol.

This technique uses virtue words in order to focus attention upon dangerous characteristics that they have.


A) Bandwagon
B) Glittering generalities
C) Name
D) Fear
E) Testimonial

Answer 1

I think that the only answer choice that makes sense is B: Glittering Generalities. The definition for it is: A glittering generality (also called glowing generality) is an emotionally appealing phrase so closely associated with highly valued concepts and beliefs that it carries conviction without supporting information or reason.
