One in which possession of an object or a shared interest -- e.g., the music of The Eagles or their Greatest Hits album -- fails to indicate any commonality, agreeability, or similar personality between two or more people. As in, just because you have a copy of Eagles' Greatest Hits and someone like Benito Mussolini does too doesn't make you the same type of guy. Coined by a music critic in an interview with VH1.
The Fallacy of The Eagle's Greatest Hits goes like this: Just because you have a copy of Eagles' Greatest Hits and someone like Benito Mussolini does too doesn't make you the same type of guy.
The fallacy of The Eagles' Greatest Hits is like that song, "Breakfast at Tiffany's." Two people have nothing in common but that guy is holding onto a chance with the girl because they both saw Breakfast at Tiffany's and she kinda liked it. Maybe she liked it but that doesn't make you compatible; it means nothing!

People who like Harry Potter, but aren't transphobic, are suffering from the Fandom Over Freedom Fallacy.
Pro BLM people who like Dragon Ball Z despite the racist depictions of black people.
Feminists who like Star Trek: The Next Generation despite SEVERAL rapey Deanna Troi episodes.
A mistake in logic that people make where they lump all people into two cadagories good guys and bad guys. This mistake is made by police,military and other people who have not learned to think.
In fact there is no one who is all good or all bad.
He's making the good guy bad guy fallacy.

One-sided coin fallacy occurs when a person only looks at one side of things, hence ¨one-sided coin fallacy¨. It occurs when someone argues that an action can exist while being completely oblivious that said action must have an opposite reaction.
Person A: Why are governments so stupid man? They can just raise the minimum wage to get rid of poverty.
Person B: Lol, that´s a one-sided coin fallacy. You can´t only look at the minimum wage going up, you also need to realize that companies paying more on wages will just make all their products more expensive.
The wrong conclusion that just because someone is a dick, they must also be wrong.
I know he's a dick, but that doesn't mean he's wrong. That's a phallusy fallacy.
When a man wrongly believes that his penis is much larger than is actually is, he is living.
I was with this guy last night who listed "well endowed" on his Tinder profile. Maybe if he was comparing it to his pinkie finger. Girl, that dude is experiencing a phallusy fallacy.
The belief that any political issue, no matter its size or scope, has been solved by Norway.
Person 1: "How do we get people to stop doing drugs?"
Person 2: "Norway probably has it solved."
Person 1: "Norway Fallacy. Do you even know anything about Norwegian politics?"
