Infer, inferred, inferring, infers, inference, inferences
To infer is to conclude from interpretation based on
evidence or premise, and/or psychological delusions that may be
at work in the mind. The conclusions may be a representation of
implications based on circumstances assumed.
The inference is part of the work and physical-mental
discernment in thought about expression made by others in
books, articles, and on the Internet, and even the news. There
are some usage problems with inferring and implying according to
the dictionary. When an implication is made, it is stated under
the surface of the message and not outright. An example is:
"We can't rule out that taxes may have to be increased at some
point in time to pay for the bridges."
When an inference is made, and surmise of facts are done, the
message has been applied to mental detection of truth, and the
resulting response made is in the form of inferring that the
reasoning for tax increases has to do with something else such
as favoritism, hidden agendas, and government overspending and
war mongering. Now the message and its
perceived implications
may be completely different.
The inference may be based on additional data presented to make
its case, so expression that is more explicit about the nature
of information becomes more discernable for truth.
Inferences seem most powerful when the messages are loaded with
implications, as the inferred
understanding goes to work measuring the
ambiguous and/or euphemistic expressions for validity.
Conjecture is mentioned also as part of inferring data, as in
the court system, where inference and implication are difficult
to discern from one another, as both are used subtlety in the
arguments presented.
A conjecture is conclusions based on guesswork, even fantasy, so
to conjecture is more the opposite of being explicit in
expression, and may even be an implication expressed masked as inference.
This type of interpretation is troublesome and misguiding with
major implications of those whose work is dirty as compared to
productive, such as the disinformationist.
The sociopath may consider what is
dirty as productive, and may not be able to distinguish
emotional discernment at all, only
fakery. The dirtiness may relate to self service and lack of
conscience.
