Cheems mindset is the reflexive belief that barriers to policy outcomes are natural laws that we should not waste our time considering how to overcome. The term can also be applied to the same "can't do" attitude in non-policy contexts, including business and science.
The term was coined by Jeremy Driver for his newsletter, Normielisation.
He displayed cheems mindset when he said there wouldn't be vaccines for another five years.
