Absolute Truth Contradiction (?)

Man, this way of thinking is too limited here.

Zooming out:  Unconditional language on its own is relatively harmless, because, most automatically preface or append the conditionals to the statement otherwise communication breaks down.  However, when unconditional language is coupled with criticism, that's the root of stereotyping.

When talking about nobody, nobody remembers nobody.

 

Unconditional language, is a "tell".  It's usually exaggeration.  Then, the question is:  "why exaggerate?"

Please compare:

 

 

 

 

The first is unconditional.  The second isn't.

Not all propositions.  That's unconditional.  This specific proportion and others like it.

1)  In this specific proposition, the subject, "nobody", is "talking about" stuff. 

2) The constituents of the proposition are in the form "not (truly knowing and talking about it)".  See below.  For it to be "true", the consequent is "or".  Or is unconditionally ambiguous.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Morgan's_laws 

A proposition can be ... but this specific one is special. 

For example:  "NOBODY TRULY KNOWS WTF HE/SHE IS TALKING ABOUT, including me"

Is it rational to listen and take advice from someone who openly admits they don't know what they're talking about?

Someone approaches and says:  "I'm lost."  Would you ask them for directions?

" ... is true OR not ... "

Are these two the same?

"NOBODY TRULY KNOWS WTF HE/SHE IS TALKING ABOUT"

"NOBODY TRULY KNOWS WTF HE/SHE IS TALKING ABOUT, OR NOT"

^^ it's non-sense ^^

Why listen to words that necessarily require "or not" appended to the end in order to retain their truth value?  

Minus the exasperation, it's equivalent to a shrug?

 

Bro, you're seriously still discussing this? 

I just passed a group of women they are getting drunk, great mood and preparing to go out. Definitely too old for me, but their outlook on the weekend looks like much more fun than discussing something someone said about nobody sometime in the past.

LOL

There is disagreement whether or not the proposition in question necessarily entails true knowledge of "what they are talking about".

Do you think its possible to have beliefs (not knowledge) about your own knowledge?

I am trying to imply with that question that it is possible to make a non-knowledge claim about your own knowledge.  Like "I dont know what im talking about" can be cashed out as "I know that I dont know what im talking about" and it can be also cashed out "I believe that I dont know what im talking about".

I wouldnt categorize the second as a knowledge claim, I would just categorize it as sharing your own belief about something (and in this specific case sharing your belief about your own knowledge)

Of course.

In what form is the proposition, "NOBODY TRULY KNOWS WTF HE/SHE IS TALKING ABOUT"?  The first, the second, or neither.

It's neither, right?
