eigenrobot added,
"BREAKING: New study shows [insert most sensational possible misreading of abstract]." "Abstract: This study shows [insert something the study absolutely does not show]." "Study: Lol I p-hacked [insert garbage data]." Who can resist forming their worldview around this?
tfw you still don't know what p-hacking is. I should google it
its basic analogy is shooting the side of a barn a bunch of times then going up afterwards and painting a target around the spot where most of your shots hit
If you try to say this to other people they'd just not believe you. "Maybe very few do this, but not so many that it matters" I tried to explain (very clumsily, probably fucked it up) the replication crisis to friends and I think they didn't really understand how deep it goes
Or rather I said something to my friends like "only 30% of psychology studies replicate" (is that the right number?) and neither them (nor I honestly) know what that means, i.e. how bad it really is
you can pretty much ignore everything in psychology :/ some of it is probably real but it's not anything actionable that last point is important "what would I do differently if this or that was true" most likely not much in most cases, I bet
"It's all bullshit, they're just producing useless shit" is kind of a hard sell to normies because it seems just totally absurd to those not immersed in the problems
sorry :/ its fine to be a private atheist about these things if you like
I include myself as one of the normies, I personally still find it hard to integrate
