      didn't say you were, my man, I said the hoax was. I'm cool with systemic and constructive criticism of a field made up of detailed examples

      This is an odd criticism. I don't like this because its just one example of a problem.

      Sometimes you need to look at other things ppl have written as well & things other people have written.

      The very important thing is that they didn't do an honest, scientific assessment of the field, but that one hoax was presented as such

      They say in that quote that their suspicion was justified "on the evidence". If they're referring to other evidence, where is it cited?pic.twitter.com/VapPW5ZELU

      The hypothesis was upheld. (The hundreds of indistinguishable sincere papers getting passed peer review all the time make this unsurprising)

          Okay, look. Supporting a hypothesis is hard. A parody account + a hoax in a pay-nothing-to-publish journal are not enough.

          No-one is suggesting it is. You need a mass of evidence & analysis by very many ppl. Individuals contribute small pieces. Step back.

          You'll always have to read more widely than 1 study, 1 experiment, 1 argument. This doesn't mean its a problem to do 1 study, 1 experiment..

          My blog was about one specific "study", and the conclusions about an entire field that were drawn from it by proponents.

          I think you're missing the bigger picture. It doesn't stand alone. If it did & all other evidence was that GS publishing was rigorous &sound

          & based on empirical evidence & reasoned argument, it would disappear. Its part of a larger & growing concern.
