If Wallace's theory is correct, then there is no reason for me to consider it, since it is just a canned response devoid of thinking, and my response would be similar. If his theory is false, then there is no reason for me to believe it.

The only logical response to his theory is to ignore it.

If Wallace's theory is correct, your internal monologue about believing or ignoring his theory is an illusion; the only logical response to his theory is to trot it out in conversation if it seems clever, and otherwise ignore it.
