Do you HAVE evidence to the contrary that you're just arbitrarily withholding? If you're arbitrarily withholding evidence that she's not being followed. What would you do if you had evidence she WAS being followed? I mean, you ran a rape-farm so I doubt it would be beyond you to lie. Would you 'Do what you thought was best?' If she was right? What excuse do you have not to tell her?
Dr. Rape Farm "Well, you know, I think it's best to, um, deflect to the peripheral elements of her life because THAT'S what I was trained to do. And if I'm wrong 1. I look stupid as fuck. 2. I would lose all of the money I make treating the misdiagnosis. Bet the psychological enterprise is TOO IMPORTANT for you acknowledge evidence to the contrary."

Get the Evidencable mug.The hypocritical application of radically different levels of scrutiny and standards for accepting evidence based on whether the evidence supports or challenges one's preferred conclusion. Evidence for the favored view is accepted with minimal question, while evidence against it is subjected to impossible, moving-target demands for perfection.
Example: An activist accepts a single, methodologically shaky study showing benefits of their preferred policy as "proof," but demands five gold-standard, multi-decade, replicative studies before accepting any evidence of potential harms—a classic Evidence Double Standards maneuver.

Get the Evidence Double Standards mug.A critical term for the modern system where facts and data are no longer neutral discoveries but mass-produced commodities. In this "industry," evidence is generated, packaged, and marketed to serve pre-determined political agendas, corporate interests, or ideological conclusions. Think of it as a factory where the desired product (a specific narrative) is designed first, and the raw materials (studies, statistics, expert testimony) are then selectively manufactured or sourced to fit. It turns truth-seeking into a supply-chain management problem for power.
Evidence Industry Example: During a major policy debate—like on climate change or public health—opposing think tanks, media conglomerates, and university labs funded by interested parties all churn out a flood of conflicting reports, charts, and "expert" opinions. This isn't an accident of science; it's the Evidence Industry at work. The public is left drowning in a sea of manufactured certainty, unable to find solid ground because every fact has a corporate or ideological barcode.

Get the Evidence Industry mug.The principle that what counts as legitimate "evidence" depends on the context and the question being asked. It rejects the idea that only quantitative, statistical data from controlled experiments constitutes valid proof. Under this view, a patient's detailed narrative, a historical document, an ethnographic observation, or a logical model can all serve as robust evidence within their respective domains of inquiry.
Example: In a court of law, Evidence Pluralism is the rule. The case is built on forensic data (DNA), documentary evidence (a contract), testimonial evidence (an eyewitness account), and expert interpretation (a psychologist's analysis). Dismissing the witness's story because it's not a DNA strand would be absurd. Different questions (Who was there? What happened?) require different forms of proof.

Get the Evidence Pluralism mug.The rhetorical equivalent of moving the goalposts, but specifically about evidence—demanding proof, then when proof is provided, declaring that proof invalid and demanding a different kind of proof, then when that's provided, moving to yet another standard. The evidencepost is that shifting standard of what counts as "real evidence," designed to be impossible to satisfy. It starts at "show me a peer-reviewed study," moves to "peer-reviewed studies are biased, show me raw data," then to "data can be manipulated, show me a real-world example," then to "anecdotes aren't evidence, show me a study." The evidencepost is always just out of reach, because the goal isn't to find truth—it's to never admit you're wrong.
Example: "In the Facebook comments, he kept moving the evidencepost. First he wanted a source. She provided one. He said that source was biased. She provided a different one. He said it was too old. She provided a current one. He said statistics could say anything. Finally, she asked what evidence he would accept. He said 'common sense.' The evidencepost had moved to a location where no evidence could reach it."
