Evidence-Based Ableism

A specific form of scientific ableism that invokes “evidence” to justify prejudice, discrimination, or pathologization of non‑scientific beliefs. Proponents claim that because certain practices (e.g., traditional medicine, spiritual healing) lack peer‑reviewed evidence, those who believe in them are “irrational,” “unscientific,” or “mentally deficient.” The ableism lies in equating “lack of scientific evidence” with “mental defect,” ignoring that people may hold multiple knowledge systems simultaneously and that evidence standards vary across contexts. Evidence‑based ableism uses the rhetoric of empiricism to launder prejudice.
Evidence-Based Ableism Example: “He argued that indigenous healers should be dismissed as ‘evidence‑deniers’—Evidence‑Based Ableism, using the lack of RCTs to justify dismissing entire traditions as cognitively flawed.”

Hey! You know who else won't be able to get any food?
Hym "ME! I won't be able to get any food either. But not because of the government shutdown. I don't use a cent of taxpayer dollars. Well, actually I used 2000 of government money after my landlord turned me on to a post covid program that guve you money for rent. That was back went my car broke down and my only source of income was doordash. So, 2000 taxpayer dollars in 35 years. I'm not going to have any food until Friday because my gas station pay is shit and I'm not getting paid for literally inventing AI. So, I have half a loaf of bread. I have less than a half a gallon of water. I can't count on both hands the number of times I've had to go without. THIS TIME is relatively better because at least I have the break and an assortment of jalapeño jams my mother made. But I will finish that gallon of water and I'm not going to have anything to drink until Friday at 4 am. Can't drink out of my sink. The water that comes out of my sink is a milky white. So isn't that interesting? Now that YOU won't have anything to eat, it's a crisis. Isn't that crazy?"

"Ope! Oops! I forgot 'Pride' is bad for a second!" Says Dr. Jordan Peterson.
Dr. JeepJorp (It's Jordan Peterson. Dr. JeepJorp is Jordan Peterson) "You're not going to be able to take pride in- Wait, no. Not pride..."

Hym "HA! That's thrice! The first time was that lecture where he first started using the audience plants. Remember? His ADVICE? The one with the cute brunette with the glasses who wanted to get into politics? Then it was TECHNIQUES! If you're using TECHNIQUES, then it's a lie... But one of the TECHNIQUES he uses is *LYING BLATANTLY AND FEINTING INCREDULITY* And last is PRIDE. The REAL AND ACTUALLY REASON Dr. JeepJorp is doing this. The REAL reason he won't come see Hidden Forbidden Garbage-Can... HIS PRIDE. This embarrasses him greatly because he said incels are incompetent and wrong and that people are stupid and useless but I am insanely competent, regularly correct, a genius with an unparalleled mind, and the highest achieving person in the history of humanity. I literally created ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. He is LITERALLY the MOST WRONG PERSON WHO HAS EVER WRONGED. That is hilarious. This is hilarious. I'm not actually laughing right now though because, you know, I laughed when I saw the clip and that was like, a couple of day ago. But it's still funny."
