Scientists, why are you such stiff kill joys always going on about things like 'peer reviewed' and 'The Scientific Method'?

Because it just comes across as elitism and the system seems rigged to stop poor people like me getting published in scientific journals and maybe getting a Nobel peace prize.

Yepp. You are right. The globalist elites exclude you from actively participating in scientific progress. We would have so many excellent "How Einstein was Wrong" articles in [i]Physical Reviews[/i] without the peer review system.

@helenS you thought you were
If the results can't be duplicated, they are meaningless, hence the requirement of peer review. And the scientific method is used for objectivity as well. It doesn't necessarily make things more expensive, so it has nothing to do with stopping poor people. If you want to get published, do proper research.

That's true for laboratory experiments, but not necessarily for environmental measurements.

@NerdyPotato if the results are duplicate, I'm gonna call plagiarism.
@Jm31xxx well, not an exact copy of your data of course, but very similar with a different group of test subjects.
Lmao... without peer reviews, then there will be many more traumatised people out there in the world who suffered because of unnecessary experiments that we now know and accept are wrong.

Try The Journal of Irreproducible Results, they should be able to help.
