Falsity and False Philosophy
There's two kinds of falsity in the world honestly trying to get to the truth and failing and producing something false. There are many false theories and they are typically stepping stones to some deeper truth or better yet some better misconception so falsity false knowledge false science false philosophy these things are common and no sin everyone is trying to produce knowledge. In this class of philosophy it's where I have things like relativism which asserts there's no objective truth because all we have are perspectives. This destroys the notion that debate discussion or criticism have any real use as we'll always have our own individual perspectives on a topic. It also prevents new knowledge from being created by people who can't possibly agree
