Quote:Dialetheism is the view that there are dialetheias. One can define a contradiction as a couple of sentences, one of which is the negation of the other, or as a conjunction of such sentences. Therefore, dialetheism amounts to the claim that there are true contradictions.
This is an example of the fallacy of equivocation.
A statement can't be simultaneously true and false, if you think otherwise you're equivocating.
