This. It would be great to have an AI product to catch this reasoning-baits.

Offtopic: I understand this is not a fallacy but how is it call in English when someone applies a logic that is truth for the universe but only to a subset? It is not a tautology.

Cherry-picking maybe? You’re selecting only the data that supports your argument.

No, it is not cherry picking because with cherry picking the implication is false. It is like because A is true and A is included in B, B is true. In this case it is B is true, A is included in B so A is also true but you only name A instead of the bigger set B.
