Reductio ad Ursidae: A satirical rhetorical tactic used to invalidate men's actions or arguments by making constant and often absurd comparisons to bears. For example, This technique highlights the irrationality of these comparisons by suggesting that men's behavior is so lacking that even a bear, known for its raw destructiveness, would act more considerately. However, in reality, a bear would cause far more damage and chaos than a man could.
“A bear wouldn’t leave the toilet seat up”
“Don’t pull the bear card”
“Excuse me it’s Reductio ad ursidae to be correct”

Get the F-ADmug. A logical fallacy when netizen dismiss other netizen's opinion just because s/he is/they are using anime avatars/profile images
The example of reductio ad anime:
Waifu avatar? Splish-splash, your opinion is trash
Hentai avatar? Opinion discarded
Any netizens who use anime avatar can shut the fuck up

Get the reductio ad animemug. When people claim something is automatically right because a large number of people are saying it. You can have a scenario with a hundred idiots and all their mates vs 1 clever person on their own. The karma system on reddit is probably the most egregious implementation of this idea tbh since people blindly assume upvotes = 100% correct in all scenarios
Person A: that game has bad reviews so it must suck. All my mates said it suck so it must be true
Person B: have you played it yourself? Sounds like Ad Populum to me
Person A: huh?
Person B: have you played it yourself? Sounds like Ad Populum to me

Get the No AD But HDmug. "After Donald" as in after the Donald was booted out of the White House and all hope & peace feels plausible. Fun fact: AD era started right during Diwali - the Indian holiday where good "trumps" over evil.
