On Logic and Alternate Universes

[Edwardo Piet]

Ham, you're an idiot, you think that you're arguing with -me-.

No, you're an idiot. You're arguing with yourself.

I'm not disputing that it holds, I obviously think that it does.  I've told you, so many times now, that I agree with you.

You're not agreeing with me because you keep saying things I disagree with and you keep contradicting yourself.

You're disputing that it holds in all hypothetical universes. But it does hold in all hypothetical universes. You can't even have a hypothetical without it. You can't define or hypothetisize or describe anything without that description being a description, without A=A.

even if the law of identity holds, 2+2 still yields the sum of 5.

You already admitted that 2+2=5 violates the law of identity. The law of identity can't hold if 2+2 yields the sum of 5. You're contradicting yourself and you don't even realize it.

 

It's a different universe, different shit happens because of different rules.

It doesn't fucking matter whether it's hypothetical or what universe it is. You can't even hypothetize it or define it or describe it without building the law of identity into it. If A does not =A there is nothing being described.
