decision-based evidence making

An alternative to evidence-based decision making, "decision-based evidence making" is the practice of collecting evidence to support a pre-existing decision, rather than using evidence in any way to inform the decision itself.

This technique typically involves cherry-picking sources or relying on bad or unreliable authorities to justify or legitimise (after the fact) a questionable decision which has already been made.

Dr. Daniel Jernigan resigned from CDC in 2025, telling reporters that Robert F Kennedy Jr seems to be "going from evidence-based decision making to decision-based evidence making" as the Centres for Disease Control began citing debunked studies to support a dodgy claim that vaccines cause autism.

Evidence to the contrary

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."

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!"
