fringe logic

Noun

Fringe Logic literally means Logic on the fringe of Illogical.

A form of thinking or thought patterns that are based on irrational and or tangent based logic. It is a pattern of thinking based on outlandishness and at times denial of real logic or sound reasoning.

A good example of this is what goes on in the heads of Conspiracy Theorists. Example: people who believe in a flat earth denying scientific observation over what we have known for hundreds of years because of a perception everything we know is wrong.

Another example of fringe logic is when someone drinks poison thinking it will kill whatever is making them sick too leading them to a cure.

Fringe Logic is associated with bad ideas and worse implementation. It also applies to counter culture.
Example 1:
I know you told me you are going to a job interview dressed in drag. I have no clue what fringe logic led you to that idea but I am going to say I hope you like rejection.

Example 2:
Did you hear that guy preaching how our current president is the Anti-Christ? He tried to sound so intellectual but his fringe logic was all over the place. No wonder nobody gets along with that guy.
