The whole channel should have way more views. Science fraud is a topic that scientists knows and talk about but it is always vague and it's hard to point at precises cases due to lack of documentation (and journalists in general).

I guess you would hate every single leftist channel in France with that.

I hate any cheap tricks used to provoke emotional responses as a method of generating engagement. I especially hate when the person using them boasts a background that implies their use is very intentional.

Maybe I misunderstood the overall position of this community.

I wouldn't know, I'm nobody's ambassador.

I can see trying to address scientific fraud is frown upon here.

But you have certainly misunderstood mine. Addressing scientific fraud is entirely worthwhile and necessary.

I just won't be choosing a source for that who I suspect is deliberately manipulative and pushing dodgy investment schemes. His entire brand looks like a desperate attempt to be seen as an authority on anything at all.
