論破.day

The art of demolishing arguments with logic

Modus Ponens

If P, then Q. P obtains. Therefore Q.

Reductio

Assume the opposite. Derive contradiction. The original stands.

Syllogism

All M are P. All S are M. Therefore all S are P.

Disjunction

Either P or Q. Not P. Therefore Q. The fork resolves.

Contraposition

If P then Q is equivalent to if not-Q then not-P.

Induction

From particular observations, a general principle emerges—probably.

Tautology

True by structure alone. The form guarantees the content.

Dialectic

Thesis meets antithesis. From their collision: synthesis.

論破

To demolish by logic. The argument collapses under its own weight.

Argument Topography

Logical structures rendered as terrain — where reason shapes the landscape.

Premise Conclusion Refutation

The Ripple of Refutation

Touch a proposition. Watch the adjacent arguments tremble.
