MSM usually finds a scientific study, grabs an interesting point, and then derives wild conclusions off it for clicks. It’s sensationalism and misrepresents the scientific findings. One scientific study does not prove anything and a retarded journalist usually doesn’t understand how to discriminate between good and bad research design. Direct quotes from the researchers are not evidence either. If you follow an influencer that talks about scientific studies without looking at the method section, then you’re probably not getting good information. And if you just look at the abstract of a study or the conclusion, then you’re also probably getting bad information. Science has mostly been compromised and, ironically, turned into an echo chamber of authority figures telling you what to believe. Most of the research is funded by the government or large business interests as well. So a lot of scientists have conflicts of interest or straight up lie. Science was supposed to replace religiosity but if you don’t check the science for yourself, then it’s not much better than a new religion. Instead of a priest guiding you, there is science man in a white lab coat.

To demonstrate, there was a study that went viral a while back about microplastics being found in all male test subject’s testicles. This sensational headline made it seem like everyone has microplastics and it’s unavoidable. This is certainly how a lot of people reacted to the news. However, the study only looked at 23 male testicles. And the actual study is hidden behind a paywall. This is problematic because people have derived conclusions based on incomplete evidence. In other words, science man and MSM said so. Who were the 23 subjects? Were they all college students that live off packaged convenience foods? Are any of them healthy athletes with a balanced diet? 23 subjects is not enough to derive any conclusion about the population. It’s hardly enough to derive conclusions about a neighborhood lmao. Just trust me bro the science is settled 🤡

Be very critical of things that the MSM is reporting because they are incentivized to create viral news. Don’t trust, verify.
