Immune to Evidence Fallacy Icon

Summary edit

Description
English: Immune to Evidence Fallacy Icon

Immune to Evidence - Conspiracy theories are inherently self-sealing—evidence that counters a theory is re-interpreted as originating from the conspiracy. This reflects the belief that the stronger the evidence against a conspiracy (e.g., the FBI exonerating a politician from allegations of misusing a personal email server), the more the conspirators must want people to believe their version of events (e.g., the FBI was part of the conspiracy to protect that politician).

Deutsch: Immun gegen Beweise Icon

Immun gegen Beweise - Jeden Beweis, der gegen einen Verschwörungsmythos spricht, so uminterpretieren, dass er dem Mythos entspringt.
