I think you may underestimate the difficulty of publishing critical papers in the field as an outsider.

The question is, is the criticism justified?

It's always possible to make a serious effort, put the paper together, get the rejections, then once that's failed a few times post the paper and rejections (at least honestly summarized) to a preprint server.

Where do you think the deep politicization that you complained about coming from?

"Scandal" is also a signaling term. There was no scandal.
