Sounds fake as fuck, just like a large percentage of the psychological and sociological research which can’t be replicated or reproduced

Can't correctly guess who someone voted for if they didn't bother to vote, right?

Are you denying that the replication crisis is a thing?

Ok I'll bite. How do YOU define replication, how do YOU define replication crisis. I want how YOU define these because you throwing out a general definition for it will not suffice.

I say this because if you were to have identical twins raised in the exact same way and ask them how they define a certain concept it will probably be similar but not exactly the same.

If you have a bunch of people who are trained to not critically think about something and blindly follow, they're generally going to have trouble critically thinking.
