indefensibly
Beyond any excuse
In a manner that cannot be justified or defended: The company acted indefensibly when it covered up the safety data.
The word typically describes conduct so clearly wrong that no reasonable argument supports it.
What counts as indefensible varies—moral wrongs, logical failures, or positions impossible to maintain under scrutiny.
