Capitulationism in the name of "pragmatism"—accepting problematic situations, policies, or compromises not because they're good but because they're "practical" or "realistic." The fallacy lies in using pragmatism as an excuse to abandon principles, settle for harmful arrangements, or resist change because it seems difficult. "It's not ideal, but it's pragmatic" becomes a way of ending discussion rather than imagining better possibilities. True pragmatism evaluates consequences; this fallacy uses the word to shut down critique.
Pragmatic Capitulation Fallacy "I know this policy harms vulnerable people, but we have to be pragmatic—it's the best we can get." That's Pragmatic Capitulation Fallacy—using "pragmatic" to excuse harm and shut down imagination. Pragmatism without principle is just capitulation with a fancy name."
