"Solipsism of the present moment" is a conclusion deduced from assumptions.

You argue against it by putting in question these assumptions. That's what I did.

You won't allow this to be done.

You're also immune to a reductio ad absurdum argument.

A phenomenological sublation of Aristotle puts in question and provides rational grounds for rejecting many of Aristotle's beliefs. It limits, for instance, the validity of axiomatic deductive reasoning and provides rational grounds for rejecting the identification of "rationality" with such reasoning. Asserting this identity isn't arguing.
