Koopa Fallacy
The Koopa Fallacy refers to a theoretical phenomenon when one group that contradicts itself is percieved as two groups with contradictory views.
This happens in internet fandoms where many users interact anonymously, and one finds it reasonable to assume that any contradictions are the result of disagreements between smallar groups when in fact it is one group being unreasonable and contradictory.
The name stems from the Goomba Fallacy, explaining the opposite phenomenon of two groups with contradictory view being mistaken as one.

"This fandom is demanding realism and wacky mechanics at once! Surely it's simply a disagreement within the fandom."
"No, the same accounts asking for realism are also asking for a cartoony style as well. It's Koopa Fallacy."
