Hey. Hand waving. How novel.
Any social science "research" coming out of universities authored by leftists, which is 95% of faculties, is going to have massive holes.
Garbage in garbage out.
They made purposely false conclusions about covid origins for crying out loud. Where they had hard data telling them it most likely was of lab origin (and their private discussions said the same) and yet they published a paper in Nature, friggin NATURE, that concluded natural origin instead.
Therefore any research coming out of the academy around any topic even tangentially related to current political debate you have to assume is flawed at best, made up at worst.
