Yeah. Um. I don't think you know what that means. I dare you to explain how my logic is circular.

It really seems like you believe you can make us want something simply by telling us it's already popular. Have you considered whether this might be circular logic? Arguing that things should be popular because they're popular?
Popular things are often better things, but they're not better because they're popular. They're popular because they're seen to be better (in some way).
When you're trying to argue that people should like something, you can't just point to the popularity of it. Those two things are the same thing!
Again, things are popular because they're seen to be better. Just focus on arguing why it's better.
