St. John of Patmos's definitions

Unconditional Altruism

A Philosophical movement inadvertently inspired by the beliefs of Ayn Rand, acting as a foil to Rational Egoism. The beliefs are characterized by unconditional sacrifice for others, a disregard of egocentric benefit, initiative to help the economically and socially disadvantaged, and a favoring of economic systems limiting extreme wealth while providing for all regardless of their identities. Philosophers who align most with this school of though include Jesus Christ, Mohandas Ghandi, Immanual Kant, Plato, Karl Marx, and any one else who recognises Selfishness and Selflessness as a Dichotomy.

Ayn Rand: "Would you take a bullet to save that homeless guy over there?"

Jesus: "Yes, as it would be the righteous thing to do as outlined by Unconditional Altruism."

Ayn Rand: "Get a load of this guy!"

Terminationism

The belief/fallacy that a change in how a group of people is recognized or protected legally eliminates all social inequities/inequalities attached to that groups socioeconomic status, history, and image within cultural subconscious. Originates from the termination act of 1953, which removed the recognition of Native Americans in as a legal entity in the united states.

"Liberals are so out of touch with reality -- racism isn't a problem anymore because it is no longer a legal institution."

"That's Terminationism; while it is true that legal progress in civil rights has been made, there have been a few steps back. Additionally, the extremes of institutionalized racism have unignorable generational consequences."
