Science is not a trust or faith based discipline. It is the exact opposite where one must verify hypotheses and do studies to determine if a theory holds any water. If one knows published studies and reports are highly likely to be based on falsified or altered data and supported due to political or religious reasons then one knows they can NOT trust their conclusions at all.

It's "current year" and actual good clinical studies and reports are discounted as fake because it goes against the narrative the left promotes while they promote pure shit studies that are clearly not based on data.

Just wait for the well studied and predicted ADE kicks in with all the vaccinated. We are already seeing it happening with the usual disclaimers and deflections.....

What's your opinion on the Replication Crisis, I am not a scientist by any means, but I have always liked the idea of learning more, and it bothers me to think that many of the stuff I thought I knew isn't grounded on something solid. I know that science isn't an absolute thing, because as you know, it is a constant search for knowledge, which can in a blink of an eye change.

[–] [deleted] 0 pt (edited )

Science has been taken over by idiots just like every other part of the system. Thankfully most of the papers i read i end up getting to test out because im reading them to use some principle they posit for actual projects. So if the results don't replicate i toss them and try the next thing. At least in my field most of the findings are generally correct enough to still be useful. IM more of a research scientist/engineer for a private company if i was in academics though im sure it would be worse if my main purpose was to turn out research papers.

OP needs a "based" flair..

Billions of Humans around the globe are sick and tired of Big Pharma and their push to vaccinate and then booster shot everyone, every year for the rest of their lives.

Imagine having to pay to stay alive? That's where we are heading. The jab is much more than a jab, it's a form of control over you and me.
