plain folks

name calling

card stacking

bandwagon

The propaganda style that best fits the statement is:

We can easily reach the conclusion above via elimination. Let's take a look at each of the options:

A. plain folks: a style of propaganda that attempts to depict a certain person as "one of the people" or "average Joe". It's commonly used by politicians to show us they are ordinary people just like us. This option is INCORRECT.

B. name calling: a style that consists of saying bad things about one's opponent in order to make people see him from a negative perspective. Often involves attributing pejorative nicknames or adjectives to the other. This is precisely what we have here, since the speaker is calling his opponent a liar. This option is CORRECT.

C. card stacking: a style which manipulates information in order to make something or someone look better. This option is INCORRECT.

D. bandwagon: a technique that relies on the idea of "jumping on board" or "everyone else is doing this, and so should you." This is clearly not the case here. This option is INCORRECT.
