Junk science is junk science.

Saying "it's too political so it must be wrong" is the same as
saying "it's wrong because it's wrong." It's a completely
conclusory, content-free statement you're making.


Adherence to scientific methods do not allow for politics. Insertion
of politics into science will bias the results of any study.

Do you therefore believe that good scientists are apolitical, or that
only conservative scientists are able to keep from injecting their
politics into their work? Either way, you are not convincing me so
far . . . .
