Moral panic paradox

Intense hysteria about a social or political problem that, instead of solving or reducing the problem, actually makes it worse.

The intense xenophobia behind the Trump Administration's efforts to stop migrants from Central America from entering the U.S. have actually increased the number of asylum seekers many times over from during the Obama Administration. It's an example of a "moral panic paradox" -- people are afraid the asylum laws will change so they need to immigrate now before that happens. Another moral panic paradox happens when gun-control advocates seek limits on the sale of assault rifles after a mass shooting. The result is increased sales of assault rifles because people feel they need to buy them now before the laws change.

Zulu's Paradox

The theory that if AnPrims were true AnPrims they would not be using the internet as it is the most advanced communications and information technology we have

- Yeah, John always goes around spewing that he is an AnPrim in Discord servers.
-Well it is as they say, it all goes back Zulu's Paradox.

The Aryan Paradox

The Aryan Paradox is when you go to sleep as soon as you touch the bed.
Once any part of your body touches the bed no matter if you're wearing clothing or not.
Once touched, you fly over to the center of the bed, with the blanket folding over your body from shoulders and under.

(Person 1) It's a sleepover, how did Aryan sleep already?
(Person 2) He touched the bed, he is part of the Aryan Paradox.

nigger paradox

When the only way you can get a black persons respect is to be extremely cool and nice to them. Which, in return, they take advantage of the niceness and you're back where you started. This mainly applies to adults/teachers.

My principal was a good principal. He only went wrong when he started befriending everyone. All the black kids now saw him as a peer and not a figure of authority, thus taking advantage of him and causing him to get fired. The nigger paradox. If you don't befriend them, they dont respect you. When you do befriend them, they take advantage of you. It never works out.

Elitist Paradox

The attempted to by Conservatives and Liberals to lable the other as being elitist. Both sides fail to recognize the fact that there elitist on both sides of the political spectrum.

The debate about the Conservative and Liberal elite is the reason why the Elitist Paradox exist.
