A toxic dynamic where genuine dialogue transforms into hostile interrogation—driven by the combination of Accusation Bias (pre-judging the opponent as guilty) and Miranda Bias (treating everything they say as evidence against them). In Interrogation Bias, the goal isn't understanding or exchange; it's extraction of confession, exposure of inconsistency, and confirmation of pre-existing judgment. Questions aren't asked to learn; they're asked to trap. Answers aren't heard; they're evidence. The debate becomes a courtroom, and the opponent is already convicted.
