Floydian Fallacy 

\ ˈflȯi-dē-ən ˈfa-lə-sē \ (noun)

The erroneous belief that a single video of police brutality proves systemic racism.

Angry Anjem: "The George Floyd video PROVES Amerikkka is racist!"
Rational Raheem: "Everyone agrees it was appalling. But remember in 2019 the police shot 9 unarmed blacks as well as 19 unarmed whites."

Apex Fallacy 

The assumption that because very few members of a group are powerful, therefore the rest of them must necessarily share that power too.

Example 1:

Jane: The top paid athletes in the USA are African-American, therefore all African-Americans athletes are richer than athletes of other racial backgrounds.
Joe: No, that's the Apex Fallacy: you are resourcing to the top outliers to make general assumptions regarding the specified population, that is, African-American athletes.

Example 2:

Jane: Men are 93% of the top 500 richest CEOs, therefore it is obvious that men in general are privileged.
Joe: No, that's the Apex Fallacy. Men are the majority of the unemployed and the homeless are nearly 80% male too. You can't derive conclusions regarding the whole based either on the top or lower outliers, but when you resource to the top outliers, you end up committing the Apex Fallacy. It would be wrong to infer that men are necessarily underprivileged because they are the majority of the poorer 1% too, that would be the Bottom Fallacy.

Apex Fallacy 

This is a logical fallacy that assumes properties of the most visible members of a group are held by all members of the group.

The most powerful people in the World are men, hence all men are powerful. This is an Apex fallacy, not all men are powerful.

The World's best long distance runners come from Africa, hence all Africans are good long distance runners. This is an Apex fallacy, not all Africans are good long distance runners.

Vegans Assumption Fallacy

A vegan must never assume that something is vegan unless and until it's confirmed to be vegan.

A vegan realised that he/she consumed a non-vegan product by failing to check the ingredients label, therefore falling prey to "Vegans Assumption Fallacy".

Snackwell Fallacy

Eating massive servings of foods which are low-fat, low-sodium or low-cholesterol under the mistaken impression that you are making a healthy choice. Instigated initially in the late 1990s with the Snackwell line of low-fat cookies.

I just ate an entire pallet of reduced sodium Lays potato chips. So you know, my diet is still unbroken.

You just got chumped by the Snackwell Fallacy, dumb ass.
