  1. ​ @reina4969  I'm sorry that objective fact doesn't agree with you.

  2. ​ @truekingvictory Yup. I've seen it firsthand, especially here in silicon valley. Higher-ups demand unicorn results cuz they've already preemptively sold investors on non-existent magic results, so there's an unspoken expectation to tweak the data to match the desired result.

  3. Same. As a woman in STEM I've seen it myself, academia is a boy's club and they protect one another. A perfect example is Frederick Schöen, it was a woman who first blew the whistle on his fraudulent research, and she was not only ignored, but ostracized. It wasn't until she'd convinced a male colleague to go over her findings and raise the alarm again that the scientific community took it seriously, because now it was coming from another man. Most senior researchers are men from older generations, and sadly those generational attitudes towards women and certain minorities is still very much an issue.
