I cannot find alieve in any of the dictionaries I have checked. Is it a Lesswrongism? If so, I strongly recommend dropping it, as suggested by Jordan below, as English-speakers parse it as meaning the opposite of how you appear to be using it, and there is no reference for them to turn to.
EDIT: Ah, now it links to alief, which is better. I'm still leery of the word, though, since googling it produces nothing, wikitionary produces nothing, wikipedia links to a town in Texas, and it sounds like its opposite.
It might be more readable if aleive was replaced with something like 'subconsciously believe' or 'have emotional reaction that...'
