Literally, two lines that appear to be parallel, but in fact are not. Figuratively, two ideas or events that are made to seem similar for rhetorical effect, but in fact have no basis in fact. E.g. "The treatment of African-Americans in America is a false parallel to the treatment of Aboriginals in Australia. The truer parallel would be the fate of Native Americans."
