Hold Generalizations suspect for Hasty generalizations
People like generalization as they can be good tools to distribute falsehoods as fact or support something they don’t know much about and are hopping you don’t require details and accurate evidence which they likely lack.
Ps. “Hasty generalization is an informal fallacy of faulty generalization by reaching an inductive generalization based on insufficient evidence—essentially making a hasty conclusion without considering all of the variables.
The fallacy is also known as:
*Illicit generalization
*Fallacy of insufficient sample
*Generalization from the particular
*Leaping to a conclusion
*Hasty induction
*Law of small numbers
*Unrepresentative sample
*Secundum quid
So, when referring to a generalization made from a single example it has been called the fallacy of the lonely fact[2] or the proof by example fallacy. When evidence is intentionally excluded to bias the result, it is sometimes termed the fallacy of exclusion and is a form of selection bias.” Ref
