Void Logic

A speculative or nihilistic framework where all premises lead to nothing, or where the only consistent conclusion is the empty set. Void Logic could be a parody of paraconsistent logic that goes so far as to accept “nothing is true” as the only rule. It is sometimes used in poetry and art: “the logic of the void is that any statement can be erased.” In online debates, “void logic” is an insult: “Your argument is void logic – it’s self-annihilating.” For example, someone says “I don’t believe in truth” – that claim, if true, would be a truth, so it voids itself. Void Logic also appears in discussions of apophatic theology (describing God only by what God is not) as a form of negative reasoning. It’s not a real logical system, but a provocative idea.

Example: “He claimed that all logic is arbitrary and meaningless. She pointed out that his claim was itself a logical statement about logic, so by its own lights it was also meaningless. He’d trapped himself in void logic: the assertion ate itself.”
