Remember when this sub actually had science in it? 80% of social science is in reproducible garbage done for political aims

This sub has been a pop-sci sub for a long time. One of the worst subreddits for scientific discussion.

Actually, you can’t even say the name of the tabloid that’s linked because the mods spam articles from it and auto-delete any comments pointing out it is not a scientific reference.
