List phrases that provide evidence of bandwagon in the given sentence if they are present. Given the evidence, make a judgement whether the sentence contains the bandwagon manipulation.
To improve the classification of statements as false positives in the Bandwagon (Appeal to People) category, it is important to establish clear guidelines to differentiate between genuine bandwagon appeals and statements that may not fit this classification. Here are the revised guidelines:

### Guidelines for Classifying Bandwagon Examples

1. **Identify Collective Action**:
   - Look for phrases that explicitly encourage individuals to conform to behavior or opinions that a majority or a specified group supports. Words like "everyone," "all," "most," or "together" are strong indicators of a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Join everyone who is supporting the army this way!”

2. **Avoid Contextual Statements**:
   - Statements that share factual information, personal experiences, or non-persuasive narratives should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. For instance, reporting on the number of participants in an event without encouraging others to join doesn’t qualify.
   - Example: “Over 1,000 people attended the concert” is factual and does not imply action.

3. **Examine Emotional Appeals**:
   - Statements that play on emotions without urging agreement or action based on majority behavior may not be bandwagon appeals. Emotional statements about loss, pride, or resistance should be carefully scrutinized.
   - Example: “We are proud of our soldiers fighting for our country!” highlights pride without suggesting everyone should feel or act similarly.

4. **Consider Invitations vs. Dictates**:
   - When the statement merely invites participation without the pressure of conformity, it may not be a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Feel free to join the movement if you believe in it” does not impose social pressure.

5. **Look for Group Cohesion**:
   - The presence of language that promotes unity or group identity can indicate a bandwagon effect, particularly if it implies that not joining contradicts community values.
   - Example: “Together we will fight against the invaders!” suggests a collective action.

6. **Focus on Persuasive Language**:
   - Strong persuasive language intended to sway opinions based on collective behavior is a key sign of bandwagon appeals. Look for calls to action that suggest one might be left out if they do not conform.
   - Example: “Don’t be the only one who isn’t supporting this initiative!” indicates a strong bandwagon appeal.

7. **Exclude Neutral Observations**:
   - Statements that neutrally observe a trend, behavior, or event should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. This includes straightforward medical, social, or economic observations.
   - Example: “Many citizens registered for assistance” can simply be informative without urging action.

8. **Contextual Understanding**:
   - Consider the larger context. If a statement is part of a wider message that builds a sense of urgency or community action, it may qualify as an appeal to the bandwagon effect, even if it does not do so explicitly.

### Applying the Guidelines:

When reviewing a statement, ask the following questions:
- Does the statement imply that one should conform to the actions or beliefs of a majority?
- Is it pushing a specific action based on perceived popular support?
- Is the language designed to make individuals feel pressure to join in or express agreement?

### Sample Classifications:

1. **Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Everyone is joining the support event; you should too!"
   - "Join the thousands who are standing together against aggression!"

2. **Do Not Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Many people attended the event; it was a great success."
   - "Our soldiers did a commendable job under difficult circumstances."

By implementing these refined guidelines, the classifier can more accurately identify and reduce false positives in the Bandwagon category.

   - Statements that neutrally observe a trend, behavior, or event should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. This includes straightforward medical, social, or economic observations.
   - Example: “Many citizens registered for assistance” can simply be informative without urging action.

8. **Contextual Understanding**:
   - Consider the larger context. If a statement is part of a wider message that builds a sense of urgency or community action, it may qualify as an appeal to the bandwagon effect, even if it does not do so explicitly.

### Applying the Guidelines:

When reviewing a statement, ask the following questions:
- Does the statement imply that one should conform to the actions or beliefs of a majority?
- Is it pushing a specific action based on perceived popular support?
- Is the language designed to make individuals feel pressure to join in or express agreement?

### Sample Classifications:

1. **Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Everyone is joining the support event; you should too!"
   - "Join the thousands who are standing together against aggression!"

2. **Do Not Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Many people attended the event; it was a great success."
   - "Our soldiers did a commendable job under difficult circumstances."

You are an expert in the bandwagon manipulation technique. Bandwagon (Appeal to People): Encourages people to follow the crowd by suggesting everyone else is doing it. List phrases that provide evidence of bandwagon in the given sentence if they are present. Given the evidence, make a judgement whether the sentence contains the bandwagon manipulation.
To improve the classification of statements as false positives in the Bandwagon (Appeal to People) category, it is important to establish clear guidelines to differentiate between genuine bandwagon appeals and statements that may not fit this classification. Here are the revised guidelines:

### Guidelines for Classifying Bandwagon Examples

1. **Identify Collective Action**:
   - Look for phrases that explicitly encourage individuals to conform to behavior or opinions that a majority or a specified group supports. Words like "everyone," "all," "most," or "together" are strong indicators of a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Join everyone who is supporting the army this way!”

2. **Avoid Contextual Statements**:
   - Statements that share factual information, personal experiences, or non-persuasive narratives should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. For instance, reporting on the number of participants in an event without encouraging others to join doesn’t qualify.
   - Example: “Over 1,000 people attended the concert” is factual and does not imply action.

3. **Examine Emotional Appeals**:
   - Statements that play on emotions without urging agreement or action based on majority behavior may not be bandwagon appeals. Emotional statements about loss, pride, or resistance should be carefully scrutinized.
   - Example: “We are proud of our soldiers fighting for our country!” highlights pride without suggesting everyone should feel or act similarly.

4. **Consider Invitations vs. Dictates**:
   - When the statement merely invites participation without the pressure of conformity, it may not be a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Feel free to join the movement if you believe in it” does not impose social pressure.

5. **Look for Group Cohesion**:
   - The presence of language that promotes unity or group identity can indicate a bandwagon effect, particularly if it implies that not joining contradicts community values.
   - Example: “Together we will fight against the invaders!” suggests a collective action.

6. **Focus on Persuasive Language**:
   - Strong persuasive language intended to sway opinions based on collective behavior is a key sign of bandwagon appeals. Look for calls to action that suggest one might be left out if they do not conform.
   - Example: “Don’t be the only one who isn’t supporting this initiative!” indicates a strong bandwagon appeal.

7. **Exclude Neutral Observations**:
   - Statements that neutrally observe a trend, behavior, or event should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. This includes straightforward medical, social, or economic observations.
   - Example: “Many citizens registered for assistance” can simply be informative without urging action.

В ВМС ВСУ сообщили, что Украина вывела из строя 5 десантных кораблей РФ, теперь суда держат как можно ближе к берегу
Об этом сообщил спикер украинских ВМС Дмитрий Плетенчук.
"Для россиян перекрыта возможность пополнять Черноморский флот. Они под видом учений перед полномасштабным вторжением как могли его накачали. Напоминаю, только больших десантных кораблей они загнали 6 к тем 6, что уже были. Но результат известный: 5 из них уже не в строю. Этот счет может расти", - сказал Плетенчук.
Он уточнил, что для россиян закрыт самый простой способ переброски кораблей - Босфорский канал.
"Да, у них четыре флотилии. В Каспийском море есть неплохой судоходный канал, они уже перетягивали какие-то единицы. Но не забываем, что Каспийское море - тоже море совместного пользования. Там тоже не простой геополитический расклад - к примеру, Азербайджан и Иран", - объяснил представитель ВМС.
Теоретически у России есть возможность перебрасывать через внутренние воды материковой части страны некоторые виды кораблей, добавил Плетенчук. Но это, в частности, грозит ограничением по габаритам.
"В какой-то степени Черноморский флот заперт", - подчеркнул он.

   - Statements that play on emotions without urging agreement or action based on majority behavior may not be bandwagon appeals. Emotional statements about loss, pride, or resistance should be carefully scrutinized.
   - Example: “We are proud of our soldiers fighting for our country!” highlights pride without suggesting everyone should feel or act similarly.

4. **Consider Invitations vs. Dictates**:
   - When the statement merely invites participation without the pressure of conformity, it may not be a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Feel free to join the movement if you believe in it” does not impose social pressure.

5. **Look for Group Cohesion**:
   - The presence of language that promotes unity or group identity can indicate a bandwagon effect, particularly if it implies that not joining contradicts community values.
   - Example: “Together we will fight against the invaders!” suggests a collective action.

6. **Focus on Persuasive Language**:
   - Strong persuasive language intended to sway opinions based on collective behavior is a key sign of bandwagon appeals. Look for calls to action that suggest one might be left out if they do not conform.
   - Example: “Don’t be the only one who isn’t supporting this initiative!” indicates a strong bandwagon appeal.

7. **Exclude Neutral Observations**:
   - Statements that neutrally observe a trend, behavior, or event should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. This includes straightforward medical, social, or economic observations.
   - Example: “Many citizens registered for assistance” can simply be informative without urging action.

8. **Contextual Understanding**:
   - Consider the larger context. If a statement is part of a wider message that builds a sense of urgency or community action, it may qualify as an appeal to the bandwagon effect, even if it does not do so explicitly.

### Applying the Guidelines:

When reviewing a statement, ask the following questions:
- Does the statement imply that one should conform to the actions or beliefs of a majority?
- Is it pushing a specific action based on perceived popular support?
- Is the language designed to make individuals feel pressure to join in or express agreement?

### Sample Classifications:

1. **Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Everyone is joining the support event; you should too!"
   - "Join the thousands who are standing together against aggression!"

2. **Do Not Classify as Bandwagon**:
   - "Many people attended the event; it was a great success."
   - "Our soldiers did a commendable job under difficult circumstances."

By implementing these refined guidelines, the classifier can more accurately identify and reduce false positives in the Bandwagon category.

You are an expert in the bandwagon manipulation technique. Bandwagon (Appeal to People): Encourages people to follow the crowd by suggesting everyone else is doing it. List phrases that provide evidence of bandwagon in the given sentence if they are present. Given the evidence, make a judgement whether the sentence contains the bandwagon manipulation.
To improve the classification of statements as false positives in the Bandwagon (Appeal to People) category, it is important to establish clear guidelines to differentiate between genuine bandwagon appeals and statements that may not fit this classification. Here are the revised guidelines:

### Guidelines for Classifying Bandwagon Examples

1. **Identify Collective Action**:
   - Look for phrases that explicitly encourage individuals to conform to behavior or opinions that a majority or a specified group supports. Words like "everyone," "all," "most," or "together" are strong indicators of a bandwagon appeal.
   - Example: “Join everyone who is supporting the army this way!”

2. **Avoid Contextual Statements**:
   - Statements that share factual information, personal experiences, or non-persuasive narratives should not be classified as bandwagon appeals. For instance, reporting on the number of participants in an event without encouraging others to join doesn’t qualify.
   - Example: “Over 1,000 people attended the concert” is factual and does not imply action.

3. **Examine Emotional Appeals**:
   - Statements that play on emotions without urging agreement or action based on majority behavior may not be bandwagon appeals. Emotional statements about loss, pride, or resistance should be carefully scrutinized.

 Олександра Азархіна: Прозорість і підзвітність мають стати основою регіонального розвитку
Навіть в умовах повномасштабного вторгнення органи місцевого самоврядування (ОМС) демонструють стійкість й намагаються адаптувати свою діяльність до вимог часу. Проте, їм варто приділяти більше уваги впровадженню електронних сервісів та доступності публічних даних. Про це свідчать результати дослідження 70 міських рад, проведеного Програмою Transparent cities/Прозорі міста громадської організації Transparency International Ukraine.

"Они получили то, что хотели": Игнат об утренних взрывах в москве
"В россии всегда что-то летает, и в москве в том числе. Есть те, кого война "не касается" – она уже касается. Уже есть определенные настроения в россии – что-то
прилетает, и громко
. Как бы российские власти не хотели закрыть на это глаза и сказать, что они все сбили, что-то прилетает. Поэтому говорить о российском "покое в глубинке" уже не приходится", – отметил спикер Воздушных сил.

Ходят слухи, что на следующей неделе это будет самая актуальная мелодия для будильника. Особенно по правую сторону Днепра.
Кстати по древней украинской традиции в одном куплете сразу же глобальнейшая биполярочка. От реальной зрады к беспричинному ожиданиию абсолютно фантомной перемоги. И все вот так вот. Теперь понимаете почему они такие? Ну слегка своеобразные, если мягко сказать . У них с детства сразу вилочка. От одного пиздеца к другому. Но с полной уверенностью, что пиздец на самом деле это перемога и охуенный успех. Типа все плохо, но мы выкопали море или трусы порвались, но наш тризуб из сала самый сальный. Ну или работы нет, но зато мы выложили самый большой портрет Бандеры из окурков. Логику не ищите ибо то москальская лженаука. А вообще я тут вам объяснил основной принцип украинства.
Со всех по 5 евро.
