> There are many people who... Argumentum ad popularum. There are also many people who believe the Nazis passed good laws. Yes, there are many people who are Lawful-Evil. That has no bearing on whether Evil is acceptable, provided it is Lawful.

In order for it to be a fallacy, he has to be basing his argument off the fact that people believe this fact. I do not see him basing any argument on his first sentence. In fact, he mainly seems to be using it as an introduction mechanism. "Many people believe A. Proposition B about A." He states it as fact, and you may disagree with that fact, but that fact is in isolation from his actual argument.
