Aberkânerie

Noun. A statement that is obviously bullshit but will nonetheless convince a large audience to believe it, because the author doubles down on their lie by also pretending they have expertise in the field.

From German origins "Aber-kann" (although possible) and french "ânerie" (donkeys will buy it)
A- So I listened to a podcast where the author says there is a new scientific way to use your brain better.

B- Sounds like bullshit to me. Neuroscientists barely understand how the brain works.

A- but wait he says he knows better because he has three pH.Ds, and has given 400 talks on the topic, and went to Stanford...
B- he is probably faking his resume too. You should stop listening to these Aberkâneries.
