Masochistic Epistemology: The belief that if a thought hurts your feelings, it must be more true/valid than one that doesn't hurt. You'll think "If the truth is painful, painful things must be true", but they're not actually, not in reality. The rules of the world are far too inconsistent for that to be true. Good things will inevitably happen and be true, even if at random.

[@liamharney4997]

Adding onto your point, it’s a common logical fallacy! If x then y does not imply if y then x. If all Jedi use the force, that does not mean all force users must be Jedi. If everything that’s true is painful, all you really know is that if something isn’t painful, it isn’t true, not that everything that is painful is true. Of course I don’t think everything that’s true is painful either, but I liked the point you made and wanted to add on to it.
