milquetoastedly 

A very strong unbreakable belief in an event in a sequence, despite there being no evidence. Elon Musk made this word up.

Unlike the factual "then," it implies a strong but baseless belief in events occurring sequentially. Instead of mentioning a fact in a sequence of events (ex: "They woke up, then they got ready for the day"), this word shows a belief, a strong belief that something has happened sequentially, despite that belief having no backing or being provably false (ex: "They went from waking up normally to milquetoastedly becoming the reincarnate of Jesus Christ").

Currently, the made-up word is now commonly being used among Republicans and conspiracy theorists.

Elon Musk's tweet: "Green Day goes from raging against the machine to milquetoastedly raging for it."

A generic example: "I went from buying Twitter for $44 billion to milquetoastedly doubling its value."

Note how both of these statements are clearly false as fuck. The word is only used in a sequence as a thing that someone strongly believes, despite there being contradicting evidence or no evidence at all.
