The Logical Fallacy's definitions

Post-Ironic Democracy

When you run for office in a Democratic system, lose the vote, declare yourself the winner anyway and accuse everyone else of being the ones in denial.
"Before the election was called, I had a pretty good feeling about it, so I preemptively declare victory and anointed myself an Anarcho-Monarch of Ottowa. Then to my shock and also not shock at all, the elites appointed their own puppet-leader instead, Zed Shabibe. Or something, I dunno, I wasn't paying attention. I'm calling upon my supporters to not recognize the legitimacy of these so-called 'elected officials' unless it's ever me."
-- Jreg satirizing Post-Ironic Democracy in "I Won (And By A Lot)"

Queer nationalism

The establishment of cultural customs, norms and identity based around the LGBT Community, LGBT Rights and queerness present in the greater national stage.

Not to be confused with Homonationalism.
Homonationalism is using LGBT Rights to justify a culture of injustice.
Queer nationalism is a culture born from LGBT Rights.
Don't confuse the two. Ever.

Anarcho-communism

A left-wing, libertarian extremist ideology that rejects all forms of societal hierarchies - social, economic, genetic - and by extension the state for creating and enforcing them.
"Anarcho-communism. Anarcho-communists are a first variant of leftist anarchism. They are communists, but minus the state."

Olaf Effect

When you are predisposed to hate a character that shows up on screen but you are surprised that he/she was not as annoying as you thought.
When Uncle Grandpa cameoed on Steven Universe, it was sort of like the Olaf Effect. You would think you would hate him, but you didn't (sort of).

Fluxus

An early '60s to late '70s art movement that focused on experimentally mixing various artistic medias and disciplines.
Much like Dadaism and Futurism, Fluxus used Anti-Art to challenge the establishment of the time, change culture as a whole and make fine art more accessible to the masses. Yoko Ono for example was one of many fluxus artists at the time that made performance art an actual thing in modern art.
