schrodinger’s douchebag 

Someone who says they were spreading misinformation based on if they were actually factually incorrect,
pretending as if they knew they were wrong the whole time.

Sometimes these types of people like to call people who see through the "misinformation" "nerds", as they are too egotistical to admit that they were just being a "dumbass".

"I made this, because my friend acts like this schrodinger’s douchebag"

Schrödinger's Douchebag

A guy who says offensive things and decides whether he was joking based on the reaction of people around him.

Any website that lacks effective moderation and allows some level of anonymity will, to varying degrees, approxomate 4chan, and be overrun with Schrödinger's Douchebags. Now this type of person defends, for instance, rape-jokes by saying "all humor is inherently punching down because there must be a butt to every joke." He hasn't thought about it. he assumes it's true because he figures "(he's) a smart guy, and whatever (he) assumes is probably right", but he's unfazed if you prove otherwise. There's no shortage of dodgy reasons he might be right and you wrong. He'll just pick another one. What matters is the game continues.

Schrödinger's Douchebag

Someone who decides if their previous statement was a joke or not depending on people's reaction.
If it is recieved positively, they will not call it a joke and simply keep going.
If it is recieved negatively, they will try to gaslight people into believing that the statement is a joke and put down those who try to call them out.
before any reaction however, they are in a superstate of joking and not joking. Hence, the Schrödinger's Cat refference.

Douchebag: "I hate minorities"
Person 1: "woah wth dude?"
Douchebag: "I was joking why are you being so sensitive?
Person 1: "Schrödinger's Douchebag much?"
alternatively,
Douchebag: "I hate minorities"
Person 2: "I agree"
Douchebag, to themself: "I love being a Schrödinger's douchebag"
