> The problem appears to be that our present text conversation climate is such that you must either pick Team Science or Other Team, and should you mention that there are faked results hiding in plain sight, people get upset because they think perhaps what you're saying is "Maybe vaccines do cause autism" and "Maybe HCQ does cure COVID-19".
Assume that you consider yourself unable to evaluate the truthfulness of scientific claims.
Being told that claims you'd thought were properly vetted are actually wrong, then means that you have no way to know if other claims are accurate or not.
If your process doesn't work, then any knowledge based on that process is called into question.
