俚语 false dichotomy
释义

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.

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."
