Do you mean the one Nature paper describing a dodecameric form of oligomeric amyloid beta, where the main author is accused of manipulating bands on Western blots, one of the key pieces of evidence in the paper? You're extending that accusation to become a fact that nations and thousands of scientists studying climate for generations are all committing fraud?

The linked article did not say climate research is fraud. It says the climate implications of permafrost thawing are complex and very difficult to model.

> The fraud uncovered in X recently gives us a clear example of how entire areas of Y can be compromised and subverted for decades

Yes, bad humans, need more checks and balances.

> my gut feeling is that Z in Y is fraud

...

> get us to limit beef

Sorry but lol, noone taking away your beef, but now understanding better that "gut feeling" :D

If you want to do something good for some things, could still reduce your meat consumption. ;)

And again what do "they" have to gain from making us less productive ? less consumerist ?

Fossil fuel is a cheat code for capitalism, why would "they" want to get rid of it ?

Why would random individual people put in work, a scientist's life, into "getting people to pay new taxes without blowback"? Why would someone do that... just for fun?

And if there is a wealthy elite conspiracy behind it - why are they so bad at collusion? Taxes have only gone down over time.
