People 'like' to use it in the phrase "Jumping on the bandwagon" because it is a well known metaphore for going along with an idea, or forming an opinion by listening to others, and agreeing with them.
The expression 'jump on the bandwagon' most likely entered popular lingo during the middle of the 19th Century, as a reference to the colorful bandwagon used during pre-circus parades through host cities. Band members would ride at the top of these ornate carriages, accompanied by other performers or privileged local citizens. The parade route would soon fill up with curious spectators, with the hope they would later become patrons of the circus itself.
Some people may have disdain for band but I tend to like it.
There are many fine palaces in the world that people like to visit.
People do not like to be treated like chattel.
Examples of the bandwagon appeal: Don't be the only family on the block that doesn't visit this awesome new waterpark this summer. Every happy newborn on the planet is wearing Softies diapers - don't let your precious baby be left out.

A group of people that all use the same product and convince you to buy it by telling you that you need to use it because everybody else is.
A lot of people use the word hate but most people use it towards a person they wish they were like.
The bandwagon effect literally means jump on the wagon filled with band members of circus clowns. Then one day a ring master named Dan Rice used the phrase jump on the bandwagon because whatever complaint the circus clown had the other clown followed. So the bandwagon effect is just when any persuasive element being advertised or shown is capable of persuading any body to join with that movement. You see on TV that everyone is buying mustangs. Its the new thing, like a trend. So you "jump on the bandwagon" like everyone else and go out and buy a mustang. Advertisers use this a lot in their ads. They like to make people think that everyone is doing it so they will buy it. To some extent, the Obama campaign had a 'bandwagon' aspect to it. The term 'snowball effect' has a similar type of meaning. A bandwagon propaganda is saying that everyone is doing it, and so should you.
