The principle that certain logical positions are granted unearned authority—privileged not because they're stronger but because they're associated with dominant institutions, cultures, or power structures. The Law of Privileged Logical Position argues that some arguments are taken seriously by default, others must fight to be heard. This privilege is invisible to those who hold it—they just think they're being logical. The law calls for examining why certain positions are privileged, who benefits, and what's excluded. It's the foundation of logical humility, of the recognition that your position's privilege may have nothing to do with its validity.
