| I conclude the paper with some reflections on the implications of this analysis for the plausibility of trivialism. |
| He defends the essay form against any charge of magpie trivialism, and makes good his claim by exploring these seemingly disparate subjects with a passion that reveals their interconnected relevance. |
| Dialetheism should be clearly distinguished from trivialism. |
| For dialetheism is the view that some contradiction is true and it does not amount to trivialism which is the view that everything, including every contradiction, is true. |
| A standard modern argument against dialetheism is to invoke the logical principle of Explosion, in virtue of which dialetheism would entail trivialism. |
| Worse: many of them simply confuse dialetheism and trivialism. |
