That's like saying medical research is a scam and citing Andrew Wakefield as a prominent exemple

Except JP is actually a reputable psychologist. He's only disgraced on the internet because of his overly fascist radicalizing side gig. In the real world he's seen as little more than a highly educated professional. Which is exactly the point i'm trying to make, his nazi pseudoscience isn't a dealbreaker for the job and that's pretty revealing to the field as a whole.
