From that I assumed that the sort of people being referred to are those who are debunking or criticising work by already established scientists. I'm speculating here but I would guess it hurts their chances because those who do the hiring don't want to risk taking on someone who might criticise their science in future.

I wonder what incident Scott refers to, if any https://twitter.com/christapeterso/status/1147237025227034624?s=20 https://twitter.com/christapeterso/status/114723702522703462...
