Skeptish

Adjective/Noun; Derogatory

A self-described skeptic whose mind is all made-up. Most-commonly seen in woo medicine & conspiracy theory communities. Frequently, graduates of Google University and victims of the Dunning-Kruger Effect.

Common quotes include:
"You'll never convince me..."

"Experts don't know."
"Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence."
"How do we know evidence is evidence?"

Bill, ever the skeptish, refused to even read Mary's rebuttal before launching into another diatribe.

skeptischism

Not convinced regarding da supposed "parting of ways" between two individuals or groups.

Tronald Dump and Melon Husk supposedly hate each others' guts, but given said shamelessly-opportunistic duo's shady backgrounds --- not to mention da huge presidential-campaign contributions dat one of said corrupt business-moguls gave to da other --- said reports of an acrimonious split should definitely be viewed with a healthy dose of skeptischism!
