The peer review process really only makes sure you format your study correctly, they don't verify your data or the conclusions you draw from that data.
Pretty sure they also filter out wrongthink. For example, if I submitted a correctly formatted paper showing that global warming isn't a real problem, I've a feeling they'd suddenly develop an attention for detail and find something wrong with it.
Even before they filtered wrongthink peer review was meaningless. You can replace the term with "proof read." If I write a book about gay dragon sex and send it to the game of thrones guy for proof reading then it's "peer reviewed."

And you'll have given the "inspiration" for (((GRRM))) to finally finish his next novel in the series.
"gay dragon sex"
I did not need that image in my head
