JPEG fallacy

A logical fallacy where one reductively presents an idea or object in terms of it's basic fundamental parts, missing the point of it, often to make an argument seem more simple or valid than it would be with the added context, similarly to how detail is lost with the compression of a JPEG.
Person A: (raging at a game)
Person B: "Why're you getting so mad? It's just pixels on a screen, bro." (An example of the JPEG fallacy, because sure, it is "pixels on a screen", in the most basic sense, but it's grossly reduced.)

Nathan fallacy

When you Study Something for 6+ Years but have Zero Proof to prove your point.
Person 1: I have studied Flat Earth For 6 Years and Know without a shadow of a doubt Earth is Flat
Person 2: Can you Prove that with any repeatable, tests, experiments, or Observations?
Person 1: I have one picture someone else took but you should just trust me bro because I've been researching for 6 years and don't have any real evidence.
Person 2: That's A Nathan Fallacy

Staple's Fallacy

The idea that people need to be compelled to not be pieces of shit. This is built on the assumption that people are shitty by nature, ie Madison vs. Monroe and the federalist papers. This fallacy provides a way of passing judgement on others for their assumptions or opinions, and contributes disagreeable assumptions/opinions to an over-generalization that is based on geographic location. The fact that it is just geographic location that determines a person's assumptions or opinions shows how over-generalized this idea is, which in turn makes it a fallacy.
he emphasized Staple's Fallacy when he said that they are stupid and ignorant because they come from an underdeveloped part of the world.
