Net Neutrality

I'm sorry but you'll have to pay for—
Bob: Ugh, Net Neutrality won't let me watch my hentai without paying.

Karmatic Neutrality

the belief that keeping your karma neutral is the best thing you can do. If you uphold Karmatic Neutrality, you don't want to be the good guy OR the bad guy.
Person: That guy isn't mean to us, but he hasn't helped. Should we recruit him?
Me: It seems he is just upholding Karmatic Neutrality to "Lie low".

Extreme Neutrality

A condition in which one responds to a stimulus in a consistently apathetic and impartial demeanor regardless of the severity of the given situation.
Perhaps we would have acted sooner if we weren’t deceived by the passive tone of Bill’s extreme neutrality.

Majority Neutrality Bias

The belief that the most common or popular position on an issue is automatically the most neutral one—that consensus equals objectivity. The Majority Neutralist assumes that if most people believe something, that belief must be free of bias, because bias is deviation from the norm. This flips the actual relationship: majorities have the most powerful biases, the ones that get to dress up as "common sense" precisely because they're invisible to those who hold them. The majority view isn't neutral—it's just the bias you don't have to defend.
"Most people in this country agree with me, so I'm obviously not biased—I'm just normal." That's Majority Neutrality Bias: mistaking the water you're swimming in for the absence of water.

Mainstream Neutrality Bias

The assumption that ideas circulated by mainstream institutions—major media outlets, established publishers, popular platforms—represent a neutral middle ground between fringe extremes. The Mainstream Neutralist treats the Overton Window as if it were reality itself, rather than a socially constructed range of acceptable debate. They forget that today's mainstream was yesterday's radical fringe and will be tomorrow's obsolete relic. The mainstream isn't neutral—it's just where power has currently settled.
"I just read the centrist newspaper—they're not biased like those crazy partisan sites," she said, unaware that her "centrist" paper had an editorial board, a corporate owner, and a demographic of readers whose interests shaped every story. Mainstream Neutrality Bias: when the middle of the road is still a road, built somewhere, going somewhere.

Logical Neutrality Fallacy

The denial that, in practical contexts, logic is not neutral—that power struggles and vested interests operate through logic, and that logic is a space of power just like science and academia. The fallacy lies in insisting that logic floats free of human interests, that logical standards are universal and impartial, when in fact what counts as logical, whose logic counts, and how logic is applied all reflect power relations. Logical Neutrality Fallacy is what happens when privilege becomes invisible—those with logical privilege assume their logic is just logic, not one logic among many backed by institutional power.
"Logic is neutral—it doesn't care who's using it!" That's Logical Neutrality Fallacy—denying that power shapes what counts as logical. But whose logic? Applied by whom? Enforced in what contexts? Western classical logic has power; indigenous logics don't. Logic isn't neutral when one logic gets to define what logic is. Neutrality is a myth; power is real."
