Fandom Over Freedom Fallacy

"When you say you're in favour of a political thing, and your fandom thing trumps that political belief."

- SBN3, SoBroRadio 1-31-2021
People who like Harry Potter, but aren't transphobic, are suffering from the Fandom Over Freedom Fallacy.

Pro BLM people who like Dragon Ball Z despite the racist depictions of black people.

Feminists who like Star Trek: The Next Generation despite SEVERAL rapey Deanna Troi episodes.

The Fallacy of The Eagles' Greatest Hits

One in which possession of an object or a shared interest -- e.g., the music of The Eagles or their Greatest Hits album -- fails to indicate any commonality, agreeability, or similar personality between two or more people. As in, just because you have a copy of Eagles' Greatest Hits and someone like Benito Mussolini does too doesn't make you the same type of guy. Coined by a music critic in an interview with VH1.
The Fallacy of The Eagle's Greatest Hits goes like this: Just because you have a copy of Eagles' Greatest Hits and someone like Benito Mussolini does too doesn't make you the same type of guy.

The fallacy of The Eagles' Greatest Hits is like that song, "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Two people have nothing in common but that guy is holding onto a chance with the girl because they both saw Breakfast at Tiffany's and she kinda liked it. Maybe she liked it but that doesn't make you compatible; it means nothing!

Maxwell Fallacy

An over reliance on ai and using ai erroneously. Using leading prompts into large language models that generate a desired response and using that response as proof. The worst kind of fallacy there is. Also posting screen shots of this fallacy is double bad.
“That’s a classic Maxwell Fallacy thinking you are right after you finally got ChatPT to agree with you after asking it enough questions! None of us humans are falling for your straw man arguments though.”
