Scientific Fraud Caused by Social Pressures

Yeah, that, or the appeal of gobs and gobs of taxpayer money.

The “social pressures” is called political correctness. The fraud in climate “science” was caused by heavy political pressure to hate, ridicule and kill the careers of “deniers.” Deniers would be scientists studying the climate who came up with honest results that did not support the “settled science” - the theory of global warming.

Scientific fraud occurs in other areas of “settled science” protecting the dominance of various theories that will go unnamed. It used to be the Pope's political and social sensitivities and belief structures that could get scientists in hot water for incorrect results. Now it is the religion of political correctness. The more we “progress”, as defined by the liberal elite of today, the faster we digress in every profession.
