Get the store discredit mug.An entrenched, often ideological predisposition to automatically reject, undermine, or find fault with any evidence, study, or claim that challenges a deeply held paradigm or belief—even when the evidence is robust. It’s not skepticism; it’s a reflexive defense mechanism disguised as critical thinking.
