Sense 2 of trivialism: 'The theory that every proposition and its negation is true.' I don't think this sense of the word is ever used except by a few crackpot ivory tower philosophers. Since there are no trivialists, I don't think it is a topic discussed often, its not even refuted often because nobody believes in the idea anyway. I believe this is a very rare use of the word.

- P.S. There are no unicorns either, but that isn't an argument against having the entry! Equinox ◑ 15:56, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
- Keep per nomination and Equinox. Rareness isn't a reason to exclude something unless it's so rare it can't be shown to exist. And this can. Renard Migrant (talk) 16:38, 17 August 2016 (UTC)

Kept: Only nominator thinks RfD is appropriate; all other votes are "keep" or "move to RfV" Purplebackpack89 15:07, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
