I did point to it, named it. Investigator bias is not a "boogey man," which you'd know if you had any understanding of the scientific method at all. You just don't want to hear it, because you like the result being claimed in the article and don't care much about the integrity of the evidence. I'm being downvoted, because this is Lemmy and I dared refuse to accept something a feminist claimed. Surprise, surprise.
I know very well what it is, but just screaming "investigator bias" doesn't mean anything. By the "scientific method", you must submit evidence and prove it.
But you don't. Because you don't have any. So there's no reason to take your claims worth anything other than the ramblings of someone who's just angry at the findings.
I really don't care about the findings or whether they're true. It has no bearing on me. But you're acting like a buffoon.
