Paradoxical Domino Effect

The idea that introducing or accepting a single paradox means introducing and accepting an infinite amount of subsequent other paradoxes, because of the first paradox.

The main take away here is you don't want to introduce any paradoxes to a line of reasoning or any model, because you'll have to also by proxy also accept an infinite amount of other paradoxes that are thus created by the first one as a consequence.
Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #1: God exists therefore any other god could also exist. Since God exists so could faeries, werewolves, vampires, Big Foot, and The Loch Ness monster. Since faeries could exist as a consequence of this, magic also must exist since they use magic.

Paradoxical Domino Effect Example #2: Going back in time is possible; therefore, you can go back in time and kill your own grandpa so you couldn't be born. Since you can't be born you must not exist. Since you no longer exist... wait what if going back in time is actually just a copy of the past you are going into? So there must be infinite pasts you can go into. Since there are infinite pasts you can go into...

Primos effect

The phenomenon where a creative work designed to represent and/or celebrate a minority is hated by said minority for being stereotypical and degrading.

This effect is named after the Disney Channel animated series "Primos", which got a great deal of backlash for containing negative stereotypes and incorrect Spanish.

The opposite is the Speedy Gonzales effect, named after Speedy Gonzales, the Looney Tunes character who is both criticized for being a Mexican stereotype, and beloved for being a heroic, quick-witted, and lovable cultural icon by Latin-Americans.
In June 2017, the city of Philadelphia adopted a Pride Flag with additional black and brown stripes on top, intended to represent people of color. However, this flag and its further redesigns gathered backlash for being uninclusive, including from LGBT people of color. This is an example of the Primos effect.
