Logic hates
Is there a name for the (il)logical pattern that goes something like:
I've been tagging it as "false consciousness" in my brain, but that's a bit of a misnomer.
"I believe/think/have experienced X. You believe/think/claim to have experienced not-X. Therefore you are deluding yourself"?
I've been tagging it as "false consciousness" in my brain, but that's a bit of a misnomer.

There's a Latin or Greek word for suppressed premises which I can't remember, because I am not Gottlob Frege, But your suppressed premises (or those of your hypothetical arguing idiot) are that your knowledge etc is incorrigible and therefore X is certainly true. But how much of our knowledge is actually incorrigible?
I may not mean incorrigible. Time to haul myself up the hill I think.
