Vacuous Truths Never Sounded Intuitive To Me
Logic nerds, unite! This meme brilliantly captures a logical paradox known as a vacuous truth . If "Pinocchio always lies" and he says "all my hats are green," but owns zero hats, then technically he's not lying! In formal logic, the statement "all my hats are green" becomes true by default when the set of hats is empty. It's like saying "all unicorns in my garden are purple" - can't be falsified if there are no unicorns! This is why mathematicians and logicians have to be so precise with their language. An empty set makes universal quantifiers ("all") true and existential quantifiers ("some") false. Next time someone tries to trap you in a logical fallacy, check if they're pulling a Pinocchio-hat trick!
