Logiphobia

logiphobia

/ˌloʊdʒɪˈfoʊbiə/

* noun
* plural: logiphobias

Definitions

1. A pathological aversion or psychological resistance to rigorous logic, structured reasoning, and objective debate, typically manifesting as an inability or unwillingness to engage with complex or contradictory ideas.

2. A rhetorical reflex in which an individual responds to conceptual challenge or logical disagreement by deploying pre-packaged moral pejoratives (e.g., “racist,” “fascist,” “phobe”) rather than constructing a counter-argument.

3. The fear or avoidance of the literal meaning of words, treating language strictly as an instrument of emotional threat or power dynamics rather than a medium for truth-seeking.

Etymology

Coined from Greek logos (reason, word, or ground) + phobos (fear or dread).
