Debunker

An individual, usually a scientist with a PhD or someone with expertise in their field of work. Whom analyzes the information, facts, and available data salvaged from a controversial point in time which many Conspiracy Nuts have labeled an "Inside Job."

Debunkism

Debunkism, also Debunkerism, is the name of an ideology that supports that everything should be debunked, mainly things someone doesn't like or doesn't agree with it. Debunkism is often characterized by being atheist, skeptical and positivistic most of the time, and it's often aimed on spiritual, esoteric, religious, left-wing and people with beliefs or positions that aren't mainstream nor hegemonic. Debunkism often walks together with ideologies such as RationalWikism, Scientistic Shillism, Scientistic Fundamentalism, Cultophobia, New Atheism, Materialism, Physicalism and Neopositivism.

"Debunkism is a really bad ideology, we should start developing anti-debunkism in order to change the reality of debunking and stop the debunkists to debunk literally everything they dislike or disagree with it."

Widely debunked

"Widely debunked" is a phrase used by people on the left, particularly in politics or the media, to imply that a "conspiracy theory" has been thoroughly investigated and been proven to be false. In reality this is rarely the case and the phrase is used to give the false impression that something has been debunked so that shallow thinking people accept that the so-called conspiracy theory is false without further thought or investigation.

Part of the debunking process involves taking the parts of the theory that are easiest to ridicule, and making them sound worse, while ignoring the very feasible parts of the claim. By repeating this process throughout mainstream media and creating an echo-chamber, the "conspiracy theory" quickly becomes nothing more than a "damaging lie" pushed by "right wing extremists".

"Pizzagate/vaccine dangers/great reset theory/any other non-left wing story was widely debunked. Nobody has actually proved that there wasn't some truth behind it, but because we say it is widely debunked, it was widely debunked. So stop asking questions about it and go away."

debunked

Originally meaning something thought to be true now proven false, it is now used as another way to say uncool or lame, but when self-proclaimed debunked, it is understood that you are the cool kind of loser. When someone is sexually debunked, they are very inexperienced and expected to remain that way for a long period of time.

Eh, I'm debunked, that's just how I roll
