A 'pseudo-argument' is an argument based on one's opinion. It does not really have a justifiable reason. The only purpose is to successfully pursuade the audience. For example, someone could say, dogs are better than cats. Some people would argue that cats are better than dogs. It really depends on the persons and their personality. Dogs are better because they are more cuddly. Cats are better because they are more independent. Or some people are scared of cats because of the halloween stories that they tell about black cats. Some people are scared of dogs because they hear about pitbulls and they could easily make a generalization of all dogs being barbaric.
