Infralogic

An area of metalogic dedicated to analyzing the deep structure of logic itself and the infinite combinatorial possibilities within logical systems. Infralogic examines not just whether arguments are valid or fallacious, but the underlying architecture that makes logic possible—the frameworks, nested relationships, and recursive patterns that emerge when logic reflects on itself. The classic example of infralogic in action is the infinite regress of online debate: someone says "if everyone jumped off a bridge, would you?" (a reductio ad absurdum). The opponent rebuts with "this is whataboutism" (a meta-claim about the argument's form). The first speaker then responds with "this is fallacy fallacy" (a meta-meta-claim about the misuse of fallacy labels). Infralogic studies this very structure—how logical moves generate counter-moves, how meta-levels stack infinitely, and how the combinatorial explosion of possible rebuttals reveals the hidden architecture of reason itself. It's the physics of logic, examining the substrate upon which all arguments are built.
Example: "Their debate had reached seven layers of meta-discussion about who was committing which fallacy. They weren't arguing anymore; they were demonstrating infralogic, the infinite regress that happens when logic turns in on itself."

Infralogic

A branch of metalogic that examines the infrastructure underlying logic itself—the deep structures, frameworks, and conditions that make logical systems possible and shape what logic becomes. Infralogic asks not just what follows from what within a logical system, but what must be in place for logic to operate at all: the conceptual frameworks that define what counts as a valid inference, the linguistic structures that enable logical expression, the cognitive architectures that make logical thinking possible, the social arrangements that train logical reasoners, and the historical conditions that shape which logical systems emerge and thrive. It also examines the infinite combinatorial possibilities within logic—how logical systems generate endless variations, how meta-levels stack infinitely, how the structure of logic itself enables infinite regress and recursion. Infralogic is the study of the stage upon which the drama of logic plays out—the infrastructure so fundamental it's usually invisible, but without which no logical operation could occur.
Example: "Her infralogic work showed how the law of non-contradiction isn't just a logical rule—it's infrastructure, so fundamental that it enables all other logical operations. But it's also contingent: other logical systems have different infrastructure, producing different kinds of reasoning."

Cognitive Infralogic

A specialized area of study at the intersection of cognitive science and infralogic, examining how human cognition navigates the infinite combinatorial structures and recursive layers that infralogic reveals. Cognitive infralogic asks: How do actual human minds handle the infinite regress of meta-logical debate? What cognitive mechanisms allow us to stack logical levels—argument, meta-argument, meta-meta-argument—without getting lost? How do we recognize when a debate has shifted from substance to meta-discussion, and how do we decide when to engage at each level? Cognitive infralogic studies the cognitive architecture that makes it possible to argue about arguing, to analyze the analysis of logic, and to navigate the infinite hall of mirrors that opens when logic reflects on itself. It's the study of how finite human minds cope with the infinite combinatorial possibilities that logic makes available.
Example: "The online thread had devolved into accusations of fallacies about fallacies about fallacies. Most participants were hopelessly lost, but a few navigated the layers effortlessly—demonstrating cognitive infralogic, the rare ability to think clearly about thinking about thinking."

Intrulogical 

The Ship between the characters Logan and Remus in the series Sanders Sides. Sadly it is many people’s forbidden/cursed OTP and has yet to flourish, however it rose to prominance right after DWIT was released.
Person 1: Intrulogicals my favorite ship! :)

Person 2: Wow I absolutely hate that ship and hope it’s burned along with every other creation Satans ever manifested, but I respect your opinion! :)

Person 1: *Disapointed, but not surprised*

internal (infrasonic) cavitations 

Non-Tarski spaces contain not only the set (infinity) of points in the space-interior; but also the uncountable set (superset) of points on the interior WALL of the sphere.

Although non-Tarski shapes contain only interior points: they are porous.

This is due to the spinning-panformal-primes on the Tarski sphere..
Tarski shapes (superset on the exterior of the shape) are nonporous; while non-Tarski shapes (superset on the wall-interior) are porous. The concept of internal (infrasonic) cavitations helps explain the relative porousness of non-Tarski shapes by assigning them to spinning-panformal-primes embedded in the interior wall of the non-Tarski shape.

These (internal) cavitations allow the points of gravity-frequentism (dark frequentism) to escape outside of the non-Tarski shape.

These internal-cavity shapes explain the ontology of anti-Fauvic spaces from an emergentist perspective.

Infralogical Literacy

The ability to understand the infrastructure that makes logical reasoning possible—the notation systems, educational practices, institutional frameworks, and social conventions that shape how logic is taught, used, and valued. Infralogical literacy reveals that logic is not a pure, abstract enterprise but a human practice embedded in material and social conditions.
Infralogical Literacy Example: “His infralogical literacy explained why Western formal logic became dominant: not because it was inherently superior, but because it was embedded in university curricula, textbooks, and bureaucratic systems that spread globally.”
