Mind projection fallacies is a group of biases that are about assuming the way you experience the world is the same:
- as other experience it – Typical mind fallacy eg. They must be upset because someone pointed out their mistake in public, as that's how I would feel.
- as the world really is – Ontological projection fallacy eg. a favorite red flower of yours may appear differently to some bug
- plus assuming a meaning you put on words is the same as other put on words – Semantic projection fallacy eg. you use the world tree assuming leafy tree and the other person pictures a palm
Can be shortened to projection fallacies
