This article makes no sense to me. If a Marxist says that a proletariat and capitalist have different "logics", he's not saying they disagree on Boolean logic, or that they disagree that 1 + 1 = 2. Obviously, it means the people have different ideas or ways of dealing with reality. And it is quite possible for people to hold conflicting ideas, without creating a logical contradiction. Also, if polylogism means to say that two people's viewpoints are equally valid, I don't see how that's a logical "fallacy". In many cases there may be no practical way of showing one viewpoint to be better than the other. Blouge (talk) 19:11, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

I think as espoused by Adolf Hitler, it said that "Aryan logic" could never be learned by Jews. So it wasn't just different ideas; it was saying there's some innate unbridgeable communications gap. Michael Hardy (talk) 20:03, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
