Double Edged Logic

When someone says something that is hypocrytical to them but uses it as a arguement for another.

"Stop assuming all people are bad, everyone has helped me, but youre just making it worse"

"Bro thats double edged logic"

leap of logic

1. Taking conclusions without enough supporting premises (or even no supporting premises at all)
2. Forcing two irrelevant shits to be related

This word is a wordplay of leap of faith with faith being replaced by logic

List of leap of logic:
1. Cocoklogi (non causa pro causa/questionable cause fallacy)
2. Black and white/either-or/false dilemma
3. Being overdramatic (a.k.a. Slippery Slope and Strawman)
4. Argument from ignorance (we don't know X, therefore X is wrong)
5. Hasty generalization

Whoa, both the Left and the Right are the experts of mental gymnastics and leap of logic!

Bumper Sticker Logic

Logic that, if heard or read, will make sense briefly. But will not hold up under any amount of scrutiny. Bumper sticker logic will pass the smell test, but fails to hold up under deeper inspection.

“Believe all women” that is a great statement, but am I supposed to believe Ghislaine Maxwell, nah man, that is just bumper sticker logic

Wings of Fire logic is weird.

Thomas Knaack Logic

(noun)

A mind bending form of reasoning that seems paradoxical, absurd, or impossible at first, but the deeper you think about it, the more it forces you to question everything.

It often involves circular logic, unconventional perspectives, or a level of trolling so advanced that it blurs the line between genius and madness.

1: “If the universe is infinite, then somewhere out there, you’ve already had this conversation before.”

Person 2: “That’s ridiculous.”

Person 3: “Nah, that’s Thomas Knaack logic.”

Hard Problem of Logic

The problem of self-application: Can the rules of logic be used to justify logic itself without circularity? Logic is the assumed foundation for all rational discourse and proof. But any attempt to prove that logic is valid (e.g., that the Law of Non-Contradiction holds) must use logical inference, thereby assuming what it sets out to prove. This leaves logic resting on an article of faith—that our cognitive machinery for reasoning is reliable. Furthermore, formal logical systems (like arithmetic) are inherently incomplete (Gödel), meaning there are true statements they cannot prove. The ultimate tool for certainty contains unavoidable uncertainties.

*Example: You say, "Logic is valid because it's self-evident." I ask, "Is that statement logically derived?" If yes, it's circular. If no, then you've used something other than logic (intuition) to justify logic, undermining its foundational status. The hard problem: We are trapped in a system of thought we cannot step outside of to validate. It's like trying to use a ruler to check if the ruler itself is 12 inches long. You have to assume the ruler is accurate to begin with. Logic is the ruler we use to measure all truth, but we can never truly calibrate it.* Hard Problem of Logic.
