Schrödinger's confidentiality

The confidentiality of a specific set of political matters is in a state of superposition due to dishonest obfuscation until a politician or some elite in society honestly admits whether or not it is confidential.
The News Reporter said, "Sir, you claimed earlier that the meeting was not confidential, and now you claim that it is. You've regulated the confidentiality of the meeting into a state of schrödinger's confidentiality. Will you honestly claim which is which and cease this attempt at obscurantism, or will you continue to be obscurate?"

What do you mean?
She claims she's empowered because she goes to work but then also claims she's a victim because she's not paid enough

Schrödinger's Woke

A quantum superposition wherein a piece of media (such as a film, television or streaming series, etc) is simultaneously "woke" and "not woke" until that piece of media is either a financial success or failure - at which point, whiney conservatives on the internet will label it "woke" if said media bombs and "not woke" if it succeeds, thereby resolving the superposition. This strategy handily allows them to maintain their delusional worldview and avoid acknowledging the reality that the majority of the population, progressive or otherwise, just isn't that bothered by, for example, a black woman in this or that Star Wars show.
Internet conservatives before the Mario movie came out: "The Mario movie's going to bomb because it's woke, Princess Peach is such a girlboss! gEt wOkE gO bRoKe!"

THE SAME internet conservatives after the Mario movie came out and made bank: "The Mario movie sold like gangbusters because it rejects woke, something something Chris Pratt!"

A normal person: "Schrödinger's Woke strikes again!"

Schrödinger's evidence

In an argument, when one refuses to make a simple search for evidence of their claim; however, they demand that the opposition does so. This creates a paradoxical position in which their belief is true and, when confronted with facts, either remains true or is discovered to be false.

In the event that it is discovered to be false, a second paradox often occurs in which the claim remains true by way of continuing to state it despite the evidence.
"Nobody has proven me wrong yet. Give me a source, I admit defeat. Don't, I stay right! Of course, I can obviously google for myself... but I have Schrödinger's evidence on my side!"
