Well, any logical axiom, like the law of non-contradiction, or any rule of inference.

No, there isn't. I said, after you responded to me as if I had equated them in all regards, that I hadn't actually done so. They're all philosophy, but they're not all the same. That's all I've said and there's no contradiction there whatsoever.

These all inclusive claims that "it's all philosophy" become tiring and repetitive
Sucks, but the reason why I'm making that claim is because it's true, whether you find it tiring or not. If you want to argue against the claim, instead of just lamenting its repetitiveness, please do so.

"You can't even argue with us without using philosophy
Well, you can't. You can't construct a logical argument without employing logic.

and since we're philosophers we automatically win the argument".
Come on, now. No one's said this, nor does it follow from the "It's all philosophy" claim.
