    Thus Warfield’s attempt to defend the claim that he has a priori knowledge of both premises of his anti-skeptical argument commits him to a view that we will call content compatibilism, the view that having privileged access to the contents of one’s thoughts is consistent with some of those contents being externalist, or wide. Other proposals of anti-skeptical arguments of the form (F), such as those by Tymoczko and Brueckner, also commit their defenders to content compatibilism.
