All of you are right, there is a difference between "fake science" and "bad science" and it has to do with both agenda and levels of competence. Actually, what we are looking at is the result of two forces meeting.
1) multiple generations of "those who can, do; and those who cannot teach."
2) #1 is augmented by the fact that those same generations are producing students that are educated beyond their intellect.

The net result is a culture in which data is irrelevant and must be subjugated to the agenda.

The "good news", such a culture cannot long endure.

The bad news is, we live in that doomed culture.

Well said, all I can add is, Exactly!
