Get the factual no captual mug.The rigid and often disingenuous demand that arguments, especially in social or political realms, must be supported only by quantifiable, hard "facts," while excluding moral reasoning, ethical principles, visionary ideals, or appeals to justice as "subjective" and therefore irrelevant. This bias artificially narrows discourse to only what can be measured, silencing debates about values, rights, and the kind of world we ought to build.
Example: In a debate about poverty reduction, one side argues from a moral imperative for human dignity. The other retorts, "Show me the facts and economic models that prove dignity increases GDP, or your argument is just feelings." This Factuality Bias attempts to reduce a moral imperative to a spreadsheet calculation, dismissing ethics as irrational.
