- coldtea 3y agoYou're posting the "trust the system" apologetics under the wrong comment. The observation the parent makes about "high stakes" is fully compatible with the article, and it's just a general observation about similar shit on all domains. The same shit that happens when there are high stakes (products, money, careers, grants, etc.) on the table for scientists/journals is also true for politicians, journalists, regulating bodies, and so on. It's also not a conspiracy theory: just basic life experience.
- nequo 3y agoPaper mills are not usually the prestigious journals. Those are usually obscure outlets whose sole purpose is to publish questionable research. Leading the public opinion is happening elsewhere.
