Brandolini’s law or the bullshit asymmetry principle

July 10, 2021 By Bobby Voicu

I didn’t know this existed, but it’s so true: bullshit asymmetry principle.

Brandolini’s law, also known as the bullshit asymmetry principle, is an internet adage that emphasizes the difficulty of debunking false, facetious, or otherwise misleading information: “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude larger than to produce it.”
