Absolutist Fallacy

Absolutist Fallacy, also Objectivist Fallacy - The belief that one's own perspective is not just valid but objectively true, universal, and beyond question, while all other perspectives are biased, subjective, or simply wrong. The absolutist fallacy assumes that reality has a single correct interpretation and that you happen to possess it. It's the fallacy behind "I'm not political, I just believe in common sense" (where common sense means your opinions), "I'm not ideological, I'm just rational" (where rational means agreeing with you), and "I see things as they are, everyone else sees them through a lens" (where your lens is invisible to you). The absolutist fallacy makes genuine dialogue impossible because you're not participating in a conversation—you're delivering truth to the misinformed.
Example: "He committed the absolutist fallacy daily, presenting his conservative views as 'objective reality' and liberal views as 'ideological delusion.' When she pointed out that objectivity was complicated, he said she was being 'relativist' and that relativism was the death of truth. He didn't see that his 'truth' was just his perspective, elevated to universal status by his own certainty."

Absolutist Fallacy

The belief that one possesses absolute, objective truth and that everyone who disagrees is simply wrong—not differently situated, not operating from different premises, not seeing a different aspect of reality, but simply, absolutely wrong. The Absolutist Fallacy is objectivity bias taken to its logical extreme: not just believing you're right, but believing that rightness is a property you possess and others lack. It's the fallacy of the true believer, the ideologue, the person who has never encountered a perspective that challenged their own and survived the encounter intact. Absolutist Fallacy makes dialogue impossible because there's nothing to discuss—you have the truth; they have error. The only question is how to correct them.
Example: "He didn't argue; he declared. Every conversation was a lecture, every disagreement a sign of the other person's confusion. Absolutist Fallacy meant he possessed truth; everyone else was just wrong. When she tried to offer a different perspective, he didn't engage—he corrected. There was nothing to discuss because discussion implies uncertainty, and he had none."

bio-absolutism

Proffers that society is a dialectic between people with high levels of sex hormones and people with low levels of sex hormones.

Anathematic to historical materialism which posits that society is a conflict between high-capital people and low-capital people.
Bio-absolutism is the rhizomatic (Guattarian) counterpart to Marx's dialecticical materialism.

Earthing Ablution

Earthing ablution is the act of tapping both palms on a sandy earth surface. The act is meant to purify. It is said to be necessary before prayer, after an orgasm or ejaculation, if one does not find water to shower, for both males and females. Simply, the act involves stretching both palms, as though one is displaying the number ten with his hands, then tapping on a sandy earth surface, blowing on hands to remove excess dust, then rubbing one's hands and face as though washing them with water.

Spiritual Abolition

Definition:
Spiritual Abolition is the sacred process of liberating all consciousness — light and shadow, seen and unseen — from bondage to fear, shame, guilt, and control.
It is the act of freeing darkness itself — not to banish or destroy it, but to restore it to wholeness.

In the New Earth paradigm, abolition extends beyond human systems of oppression into the energetic, psychic, and elemental realms.
It dissolves domination from every layer of existence — energies, entities, and even inanimate objects — clearing inherited imprints of trauma, violence, and separation so that all may return to sovereign neutrality and divine coherence.
Heatherly Sun Fox practices Spiritual Abolition by guiding ceremonies to liberate the souls buried in forgotten public asylums across the country — releasing their lingering fear and shame into light, restoring their sovereignty, and honoring them as ancestors of the New Earth. 🕊️
