Just dandy. Science can be manipulated? How is that even possible?

When people like Fauci control nearly all the money for research in this country and a large portion around the world, we’ve seen from Covid how science is not really science anymore, it’s politics and money rolled into science to support a particular goal.

Not surprising since a lot of what they told us about the efficacy of the Covid vax was manipulated.

Most “studies” paid for with government grants are fraudulent.

How would you make it impossible?
Scientists are humans, subject to influence and pressure.
That's what the Scientific process is supposed to weed out.

What's worse, corrupt scientists or FDA and CDC legislating which science is "correct" and which is "misinformation", essentially using their considerable authority to back the corrupt scientists and silencing all others.

The journal Nature is British. The journal Science is American. They don’t always see eye to eye on subjects. I recall the journal Nature publishing propaganda before not to say the journal Science hasn’t done that before as well.

This should be no surprise, especially after the games Pfizer and Moderna played with their COVID “vaccines.” And remember several years ago when the editor of the New England Journal of Medicine wrote that editorial in which he decried the widespread fraud occurring in medical research? He stated that 95% of all medical research papers reached conclusions that were wrong, through a combination of fraud and sloppiness, and that this happens because of the drive to be the first to publish in order to chase research grant money.

Others have written more recently about a “crisis of reproducibility”, in which most medical research results cannot be reproduced by other researchers (as in this case). Ever wonder why we constantly hear about how some food is good for you, then it’s bad for you, but then it’s good for you again, etc.? I think that’s due to this cesspool of medical “research” fraud and graft. There’s no better example of all of this than the criminal lying by the “medical establishment” about cheap, safe, and effective treatments for COVID like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin. They all knew better and yet lied to benefit themselves. Combine this reprehensible behavior with the obscene and deceptive billing practices among consolidated hospital consortiums and you quickly come to the conclusion that the entire medical industry is now built upon fraud and greed and cannot be trusted.

Finding a treatment for Alzheimer’s has eluded scientists for decades.

Decades? How about when it was discovered in 1907 by Dr Alois Alzheimer?

If you are going to be a caretaker, don't look to the medical profession for any help.

I'm guessing you're being sarcastic, but in reality it's very easy. You throw out data points that don't fit your 'story', you use creative statistical analysis, you make sure your graduate students and post-docs know that they have to give you "good data" (meaning it fits your story), and you strongly over-interpret your data. You recommend friends/connections to journals as potential reviewers of your manuscripts - and you do the same for them. All of these things, and much more, are very common in science currently.

who would of thought a society that cheats to get into the right school and to have good grades would fake studies? I think that fraud in scientific research should be a reason to take away degrees in fields of study that the fraud occurred in.

BLOTS ON A FIELD?
A neuroscience image sleuth finds signs of fabrication in scores of Alzheimer’s articles, threatening a reigning theory of the disease

Long and interesting article on the manipulation of science.

So basically, Resident Potato Head is totally SANE, and it’s the REST OF US that have Alzheimers?

Ok. Sure. Fine. Whatever, Mr. Scientist.

Just eat more avocados and eggs yolks, and ignore Nature and your stupid doctor who learned nothing about nutrition in what passes for medical school these days.

Color me shocked. /s

I’ve labeled Alzheimer’s research fraudulent for years, ESPECIALLY after they buried evidence that it’s caused principally by systemic inflammation.

And I have nothing kind to say about those running the fundraising ops for this research.
