A form of proof bias where one demands evidence that is, in principle, [impossible] to provide—such as proof of a negative, [absolute certainty], or evidence that would require violating the very phenomenon being studied. The goal is not to be convinced but to create an unattainable standard that ensures the opponent always fails. [Impossible] proof bias often appears in debates about historical events, subjective experience, or metaphysical claims: “prove you weren’t there,” “prove you’re not dreaming,” “prove God doesn’t exist.” It weaponizes the limits of human knowledge to dismiss any position the biased party wishes to reject.
