Average scientist in 2025
Scientists know less than nothing about anything because you are trapped in a spiderweb of retarded delusions. “The nativeologist semiotics of transnational bulldyke kinship microtraumas.” Fuck you and die lmao

>“The nativeologist semiotics of transnational bulldyke kinship microtraumas.”
It's really no different from "The Symplectic Topology of Entangled Quantum Foam in Holographic Multiverses". Yes, I just made it up, but it may very well be a "legitimate" theoretical physics subject, or become one tomorrow. Both will get a pass for the same reason: sufficient advanced scientific specialization is indistinguishable from pure wankery.

Can scientific journal editors? This is not a rhetorical question but it is a trick question.

Richard Horton (editor-in-chief of the Lancet) doesn't seem so sure:

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(15)60696-1/fulltext

>The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest, together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable trends of dubious importance, science has taken a turn towards darkness. As one participant put it, “poor methods get results”. The Academy of Medical Sciences, Medical Research Council, and Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council have now put their reputational weight behind an investigation into these questionable research practices. The apparent endemicity of bad research behaviour is alarming. In their quest for telling a compelling story, scientists too often sculpt data to fit their preferred theory of the world. Or they retrofit hypotheses to fit their data. Journal editors deserve their fair share of criticism too. We aid and abet the worst behaviours. Our acquiescence to the impact factor fuels an unhealthy competition to win a place in a select few journals. Our love of “significance” pollutes the literature with many a statistical fairy-tale. We reject important confirmations. Journals are not the only miscreants. Universities are in a perpetual struggle for money and talent, endpoints that foster reductive metrics, such as high-impact publication. National assessment procedures, such as the Research Excellence Framework, incentivise bad practices. And individual scientists, including their most senior leaders, do little to alter a research culture that occasionally veers close to misconduct.

"Zionism, a settler colonial and imperialist project, compels Palestinians to live in a world in which reality is consistently disavowed. This reality-bending is a psychotic mechanism, at least clinically defined: “a cognitive slippage that seeks an omnipotence that can, at its heart, snuff out the psyche of another, rendering the ‘abnormal,’ ‘normal.’"
Jesus Christ.

Thats not what "Psychotic" means. "Cognitive slippage" either, its "blindness", where one part of the brain blots out the signals from another so it can follow through with what it was doing without having a "split descision" within itself...it does this though tyrannical domination of the self.

Nothing in what you posted indicated that. If anything, it shows that they recognize pseudoscience but are willing to publish it anyway because of how capitalism works.

It's good that you're not wasting my time with spurious arguments and going straight for psychotic denial instead. Anyway can read the quote/the article itself and then judge for himself. But that's old news. Seems like at some point since Horton published that, the "scientific establishment" progressed from idiocy to outright systemic fraud:

https://www.science.org/content/article/scientific-fraud-has-become-industry-alarming-analysis-finds

>For years, sleuths who study scientific fraud have been sounding the alarm about the sheer size and sophistication of the industry that churns out fake publications. Now, an extensive investigation finds evidence of a range of bad actors profiting from fraud. The study, based on an analysis of thousands of publications and their authors and editors, shows paper mills are just part of a complex, interconnected system that includes publishers, journals, and brokers.

>The paper, published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, paints an alarming picture. Northwestern University metascientist Reese Richardson and his colleagues identify networks of editors and authors colluding to publish shoddy or fraudulent papers, report that large organizations are placing batches of fake papers in journals, suggest brokers may serve as intermediaries between paper mills and intercepted journals

Science is when "scientific" institutes agree with you.
Pseudoscience is when you don't respect the status quo.
Being right is orthogonal.

Well I'm sorry but there's no step in the scientific method that says "... or take someone prestigious's word for it".
As long as people defer being rational to someone else, it's not being scientific, it's being gullible.

You actually seem to dismiss this research much like OP - a yet you accuse OP of being a "poltard". You're welcome to dismiss her research if you want , but academia takes it seriously, and if you deny that fact, then you're either just misinformed and uneducated or you're an outright liar.

This isn't pol. Quite the opposite, if anything it is the mainstream academic position to take her seriously. It's considered extremely distatesteful, and in some cases even downright conspiratorial and antisemitic to dismiss the academic credentials of mainstream scholars.

To be fair, you are 100% correct that there are major cultural divides within academia and even within specific disciplines, so someone doing this cultural anthropology research that is heavily informed by continental philosophy and humanities scholarship would typically have very different views from someone studying biological, linguistic, or cognitive anthropology, where statistics, genetic analysis, and empirical data all play a large role.

That being said, although her views are probably not common, e.g. amongst biological anthropologists, she would still be taken seriously by these individuals and by mainstream academia. That's why pretty much any anthropology department in the US or Europe has people studying this type of stuff. The universities take it seriously, and so do a lot of educated professionals working in the biological and social sciences. This sort of research is mainstream and accepted within academia. It's not considered pseudoscience at all, and a lot of academics and "trust the experts" liberal zionist types would take offense at your dismissal of these scholars and their research.

Personally, l take biological approaches to anthropology a lot more seriously, and much like both yourself and the OP I tend to be skeptical of this humanites/continental philosophy cultural anthropology stuff, but you're simply incorrect if you think this is fringe pseudoscience.

The fact that her photo is considered OK, also says that the faculty of that department aligns with her views.
