Hey guys, I need to write a paper on a recent scientific fraud case for my bioethics course. Any suggestions ?
I just had a comment I made in /r/videos silently deleted. The comment was in reply to someone who (rightly) ridiculed flat earthers by noting that when they get a result they don't like, they toss it out and modify the conditions to try to get a result they do like.
A little over a decade ago, a FOIA request to a university resulted in the release of some computer code that revealed climatologists had adjusted their data upwards (to show more warming) by hardcoding an array of "fudge factors" to apply to the actual data.
I posted about this in the /r/videos thread and compared it to something the reddit hivemind agrees with (the criticism of flat earthers)
You can find the comment in my profile. It has been deleted from the r/videos thread.
The key to good science is honesty. Feynman, Niels Bohr, Einstein, and many other great men of science stated that. To report as accurately as possible what is being seen. ANY breakdown of that method is dishonest, fraud, and disqualifies the person or group as not scientific, not trustworthy, and not ethical.

As PM Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore once so wisely universally stated, one of the great men of our era: "Trust is a very slender thread, and if broken is very hard to put back together.
Infocriminals all, like the Madia. This has been their undoing. Liars, deceivers, and corruptors of the truth go straight to the pits of hell, of their own creation, by their own evil deeds.
Then wonder why no one trusts or believes them any more. Universe of events enforces ethical behaviors and ruins those who violate those great, nearly universal truths.
Shame on the LOT of them!! They will be defunded & ruined.
Seems like it would be in Bret's wheelhouse...
