Dutch Social Scientist Fake Data, Vegans / Liberals Cry

[valvano]

A prominent Dutch social scientist whose findings were used by the left in many of their arguements has been found to have faked many of his studies.

lol, wtf? what kind of blogs do you read to twist the logic you deduced to get to that thread title?

first of all- can you show me one mention of "liberal", "vegan", or a publication from "the left" in that article about a Dutch scientist?

"several dozen publications in which use was made of fictitious data"

like what publications? can you list one based on the article?


methinks this is the part of the defrauded study that caught valvano's attention:

This year, Prof Stapel co-authored a paper published in Science magazine that said white people are more prone to discriminate against black people when they encounter them in a messy environment, such as one containing litter, abandoned bicycles and broken sidewalks.

"These findings considerably advance our knowledge of the impact of the physical environment on stereotyping and discrimination and have clear policy implications," the paper's abstract says

anything that points to reverse discrimination, the poor white folks that keep being accused of racism and, valvano posts it here.

it's okay to keep stereotyping, valvano,. it was all a fraud!


seriously, are you a dunce?

Goddamn it Valvano, you are such a fucking dimwit!

The study came out in August of this year, so how often could the "left" use his arguments? and for what purpose? Also, it wasn't "many", it was one. It's possible he faked plenty, but this article only discusses the one about thinking about eating meat making people more selfish.

Which, I'm pretty sure even vegans would second guess.


dumb, you are dumb and mean and everyone thinks so. This is not a farce, there is something WRONG WITH YOU!

Valvano - can you provide me with a quick list of the most high profile liberals and left wingers who cite Stapel's research in their arguments.

I am sure you have this data to hand and are not just making it up, because, under the circumstances, that would be hilariously ironic.

he still has to get back to you with the data about 45% of the population not paying taxes, don't rush him, he's probably just busy researching

^ To be fair - I did that research and he was right about that. Or rather it was 45% of households dont pay net federal income tax. Apparently you Americans pay state and federal taxes?

He also did not mention that the figure had come down from 47% in Bush's last year in office.
