optics

Often in a mainstream or social media setting, the way in which an event or process is perceived by others. Often related to the act of virtue signalling - optics are how a signal will be received/ "look".

Shell marketing exec (1): "we need to signal that our company is all about saving the planet, not making £8 Billion profit - and sponsoring those desperate muppets at British Cycling for a few million quid seems like a no brainer"
Shell marketing exec (2) "you've got it - the optics are great, although surely those fresh-air lycra boys won't buy it?!"
British Cycling: "thanks guys, you're so lovely, we cyclists always knew the oil industry was our friend"

optics

Usually, in a mainstream or social media context, jargon to describe the way in which an event or process will be perceived. Often used with other political jargon - notably virtual signalling, where the "signal" is intended to generate a specific and ideally positive public association ("good optics").

Shell Exec (1): "We've just made £8 billion in profits from selling super-priced oil, and the northern hemisphere is heating up like crazy. We need to soften the optics. How about we chuck a few million quid at those desperate muppets at British Cycling?! Worth a shot?"
Shell Exec (2): "Blatant virtue signalling - you never fail Hank - I think that could be the most transparent bit of greenwashing in history! But those lycra boys will never buy it..."
British Cycling official: "wow, thanks, guys; we always knew the oil industry was really nice."

Optallacy

An extreme lie that what is being shown is perfectly wonderful, happy, positive, and or well- intentioned. Where in actuality it is the exact opposite, and its what the positive cover or disguise is trying to hide whether it be accomplishing that very well or not. (The "Op" comes from optimistic and optical, and "allacy" comes from fallacy.)

"It was an obvious optallacy that the place shown on the map isn't as wonderful as it is cut out to be..."
