Weaponized incompetence

Something your dad accuses you of when he has to go get off his ass and do something for once in his goddamn life that someone else is not good at

Person 1: Can you make noodles? Last time I tried I burned myself.
Person 2: Goddman. Weaponized Incompetence
Person 1: ok bud

Incompetently stupid

Something so beyond stupid, you have all over your face .

If your mistake is incompetently stupid, and you don't realize it, you don't know what the definition of insanity is.

Passive-Aggressive Strategic Incompetence

A deliberate and calculated behavior exhibited by an organization or its members, particularly law enforcement agencies, where they feign misunderstanding or lack of capability to fulfill a legal or formal request for information. This tactic is employed as a means of evasion to avoid accountability, transparency, or the disclosure of information that could implicate the organization in illegal activities or misconduct. It is characterized by an outward appearance of cooperation or innocence, masking an intentional effort to obstruct justice or the rightful access to information. This behavior is passive-aggressive in nature because it avoids direct confrontation or refusal while actively working against the requester's aims to uncover truth or obtain justice.

This definition encapsulates the manipulative and obstructive nature of the behavior, emphasizing its purpose as a strategy to evade legal and moral responsibilities.

The police department's refusal to provide the requested documents, coupled with their pretense of not understanding the clear terms of the FOIA request, is a classic case of passive-aggressive strategic incompetence designed to shield themselves from scrutiny.

Legal system determined mental incompetence

Nonono I drew the parallel but that isn't the fundamental claim

Hym "It's that he has a level of Legal system determined mental incompetence that prevents him from truly consent. It's fucking ridiculous."

Weaponized Incompetence

When someone does a simple task requested of them badly on purpose so they seem too incompetent to do said task, thus ensuring nothing is ever asked of them again.

Jill: "Will you do *insert simple task here*?"
Jack: "Ugh, I guess." *Does it wrong so she feels that she can't trust him to do it right*
Jill: *Sees the horrible job jack did* "Oh.. I guess I should just do it myself next time.."
Jack: "Great! Weaponized incompetence works!"
Jill: "... What..?"

Controlled Incompetence

Knowing how to correctly accomplish an undesired task and producing a sub-satisfactory result as to never be asked to perform said task again.

The Guy: My boss wants me to work on this new machine. He's always coming to me for these things.
Coworker: sounds like you could use some controlled incompetence. Just give the appearance you're busy with it and mess it up. The boss will find someone else next time and then they can be "The Guy."
