That to me is the scariest thing of all.

Science can't work if unpopular and controversial results are not given fair consideration. By all means, bad methodologies and conclusions that do not follow from the premises should be picked to pieces, but we can do without downvote campaigns and snarky "Big yikes, sweaty, don't you know that has been debunked already?" comments.

Edit: thanks for the ResearchCoin, kind stranger!
