Yeah what the fuck this has zero actual evidence.
Maybe I am someone the paper is talking about. I am interested in science. I like to use google scholar to check information on things. But I am fucking disillusioned with science for profit bullshit! Yeah, I don't trust it as much as I used to because everyone is a soulless money grubbing husk these days.
Wait so did you read the article or not
yes, what suggested I didn't? Is there evidence in the abstract? is there a way to access more than the abstract without having some special credential? I can see charts in a sidebar but I can't enlarge them
You comments suggested it, again, did you pay to read the article or you just read the abstract?
No I didn't pay to read the article, that's my point. I read the available portion (the abstract). Making me pay to read whether an abstract has compelling evidence or not is a garbage m9del, that's my point
Well you said it has zero evidence, which implies you read it
Ah yes, I should be forced to pay yo see if things are true. This is a sustainable model...
Oh wait no it isn't. Misinformation is at all time highs. Maybe scientists should study why?
My hypothesis: when things become expensive people improvise, this is true with Healthcare and education.
Interesting. I have intermediate levels of scientific knowledge and actually believe that I don't know shit about science. Compared to a PhD, I am like a toddler, and yet science fascinates me. Reading about how things work, how some researchers dedicate years to expand human knowledge about a single interaction in the human body or at microscopic scale just fills me with awe.
Yes, there are a lot of issues in the scientific community, publishers, garbarge journals, exorbitant publishing and research fees, unhealthy competition, high barriers for minorities, lopsided financial distribution, the reproducibility crisis, and so on and so forth, but it's the best we have right now, and I trust science a lot more than most institutional stuff right now.
