False dichotomy 

Two ideas presented as the exclusive set of options when more options exist.

“‘Stay faithful, or stay single’ is what I always say.”
“False dichotomy, dude—what if you’re poly?”

False dichotomy 

Thinking that there are only two possibilities when there are more.

1.
Louise: I love cats.
Keisha: why don’t you like dogs?
Louise: I like both, liking cats and liking dogs aren’t mutually exclusive. Thinking they are is a false dichotomy.

2.
Person 1: I’m not a liberal.
Person 2: so you’re a conservative?
Person 1: no I’m independent. Why do people see politics as a false dichotomy.

False Dichotomy 

It isn't a choice between trying to prove that people can overcome obstacles and blaming or complaining. That's some solipsistic bullshit you made up to absolve your self from guilt because you are probably directly responsible for something that resulted in a negative outcome. "It'S nOt Me! It'S sTrUcTuRe oF rEaLiTy!" So, you make up this imaginary rule that doesn't actually exist as a form of cosmic scapegoat. My contributions are being diminished or omitted entirely. If you're doing it to me than you're doing it to other people. It fully justifies raping and murdering your kids. You can kill all of the rapists and pedophiles you want, it isn't going to un-rape or unkill those kids. And then you can give THAT SPEECH... To THAT molested person. And it will do just as much as for them as it does to explain how reality works. NOTHING. Imaginary bullshit to preserve your solipsistic sphere. And it won't matter how successful they are. Look at the guy from Lincoln Park. Look at Kurt Cobain. It doesn't matter how successful people are. You are either ameliorating suffering or you are exacerbating suffering. You don't get to pick and choose... Because I can always just defer mine to someone else.

That's ACTUALLY all sucess IS! Deferring suffering! THAT ALL IT IS! THAT'S WHY PEOPLE HATE YOU! It isn't 'JeAlOuSy' they aren't mad that you're just so cool and special too much better than everyone. You're using other people to elevate yourself. Taking full credit. And then defering all of your suffering of onto the rest of the world. Because the system isn't designed for everyone to succeed. It's designed for you to be the special better than everyone guy. And everyone else to be fine.

Hym "That's a false dichotomy Chris... Because you can always just stab a kid" 🤷

False Dichotomy 

Neither. Release me from the echo chamber or I'll murder a little and then as many people as I can.

Hym "And I could be wrong. I don't actually know what you see. Authors couldn't ever see their own posts unless they were flagged for review. But, complying with your philosophy of how the world words is not the solution to what is happening here and if YOU are trying to make it the ONLY solution to my situation then you are in fact using weaponized schizophrenia to enforce your own belief system. So now THIS is the only solution. Oh? False Dichotomy you say? It'll become true on a long enough timeline if the you don't understand the words 'release me from the echo chamber or I'll kill your kids' and do those words immediately. I'll give you a second to Google the word immediately."

Implicit false dichotomy 

We're seeing a lot of that recently in the discourse around "Victimhood"

Hym "And how it works is basically like this: So-and-so will sarcastically say 'Well this person is clearly a victim.' And what they are insinuating is that the person is 'acting as though they are a victim even though they are are not.' This creates the implicit false dichotomy between 'People who act like victims' and 'People who don't.' The former are 'The bad ones' and the latter are 'The good ones.' Sound familiar? It's the 'good one/bad one frame.' I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT THAT BEFORE! REMEMBER!? It's a framing tool they like to use! See it!? And that's all it is. It doesn't mean anything."

Cheeks 

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)

"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."
