(noun) A confrontation that ensues between two or more people after one has (intentionally or unintentionally) broke wind, usually to express displeasure regarding the alleged fart. Confartations rarely turn violent.
Guy 1: *sniff* Nigga you farted?
Guy 2: Nigga why you up in my shit? I farted in my pants not your face. Don't make your good sense of smell my problem
Guy 3: Hey are ya'll having a confartation?
A bias where one automatically contests, challenges, or disputes any information that doesn't align with preexisting views. Contestation Bias doesn't just ignore opposing evidence; it actively fights it, demanding impossible standards, shifting goalposts, and finding reasons to reject. It's the bias of perpetual opposition—the mind that says "no" before hearing the question.
"Every study she cited, he contested. Methodology, sample size, funding source—always a reason to reject. Contestation Bias isn't skepticism; it's automatic opposition. Not "show me evidence," but "your evidence is never enough." The contest is the point; truth is secondary."
