Original Note:
This journalist framed a question using the "some people say" technique, which is a variation of the bandwagon fallacy combined with the strawman fallacy. This tactic is used by both Left and Right, but does not permit the listener to gauge the accuracy of the premise. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/12/how-trumps-verbal-trick-moved-into-progressive-discourse.html
