Revisionism Fallacy

Aka, the “Liberty Cabbage Fallacy”, When people forcefully change the meaning of a word or concept for political or social reasons, then pretend that new meaning is legit just because it’s popular or approved by institutions.
“Man I love Liberty Cabbage!”

“You mean Sauerkraut?”

“No it’s liberty cabbage bc German bad!”

“Thats just a revisionism fallacy, everyone’s just gonna call it sauerkraut the moment your social opinions lose grace”

Blending the criticism of superficial inclusivity pushes with the notion of altering historical narratives for modern agendas. It's a fitting way to describe instances where casting choices prioritize contemporary diversity optics over period-specific accuracy.
Forced Diversity Revisionism (FDR) it is a shiny new coinage for those Hollywood history tweaks that prioritize inclusivity vibes over era-specifics, and for all those complaining about Viking warlords with cornrows or medieval knights who look like they just walked out of a UN meeting.
