The flawed reasoning that perfect, absolute neutrality is achievable, or that striving for NPOV is the same as striving for truth. This fallacy has two forms: 1) The idea that a viewpoint can be separated from all perspective (the "view from nowhere"), and 2) The belief that by presenting all sides equally, one has accomplished a fair and accurate representation, even when one side is factually wrong or morally indefensible. It mistakes a procedural ethic for an epistemic guarantee.
