faux-inverse

An inversion involving conflation.

Usually involves inverting the position of the structural (future-to-past) truth and the formalistic (past-to-future) truth; and then conflating the formalistic truth with the structural truth.

Ie. the formalistic truth becomes the structural truth.

The semantic.
A faux-inverse juxtaposes both inversion and conflation.

Faux-High

When someone pretends to be high, when really they aren't. The truth is, they're too afraid to actually do drugs, so they trick others into thinking that they're high. To do that, they act very high, such as air-heady.
1:"Wow, Joe is really high."

1:"For real? Wow..."
