Get the Hyperlogical mug.The pathological extreme of hyperrationalism, focused specifically on the worship of formal logical systems. It treats syllogistic validity as the highest virtue, often at the expense of truth, relevance, or human decency. If an argument is logically valid, it is deemed sound, regardless of whether its premises are connected to reality.
Example: Arguing, "If we accept that overpopulation is a problem, and that pandemics reduce population, then pandemics are a logical solution. I'm just following the logic." Hyperlogicalism proudly follows a chain of reasoning off a moral cliff, mistaking procedural correctness for wisdom.
