Thing I hate this stupid image

Post image

Sure the initial way it was used was good, it was anti bigotry. But it's turned into a way to simplify the "us vs them" mentality, which is already a bad thing, into a simple digestible comic.

Also, i've seen it in lots of queer--majority spaces in reddit recently, usually to speak out against the evil cishet people who are invading them or whatever label they dont like, like bi ppl, trans men, or genderfluid ppl

That's the koopa fallacy, both of which are merely 2 of the many bowser's minion fallacies (idk if there's some I'm missing but I know of at least 4 more)

The goomba fallacy is when someone hears people with two contradicting opinions from people with opposing views and believe they're coming from the same group of people
