I absolutely hate gangster science and I will do anything I can to oppose the filthy vermin who are constantly shoving it on us. I'm really curious how this whole "gangster science" thing operates in your mind. Do all the world's scientists get together like the Legion of Doom and decide on what agenda they're going to push that week/year/decade and then go about pushing it primarily in little-read peer-reviewed journals that are almost solely read by others in their field in the hopes that they might get lucky and get featured in the news media? Well now, I would think it works like this. They get paid rather good money to produce results that jibe with conclusions that have already been reached, and if they don't do that, their funding gets cut off, and they will have to find some other kind of occupation, like flipping burgers in a fast food joint, or something like that. |
