Peer review depends on the seriousness of the reviewers. Sometimes they’re too busy to give af, sometimes they’re fucking dumb, sometimes they’re deferential to authority figures who they know to be wrong. Same as everyone else. 90% of the scientific literature is irreproducible shit.
Nice made up stat. For anyone upvoting this, take a look at this video refuting a similar science denier. It’ll give you a real idea of how science works. The video also specifically addresses the so-called “reproducibility crisis”.
You’d have to be a fucking moron not to recognize the colloquial use of 90%. I’ve been in the trenches. I’ve published (in Science, is that good enough?) and seen forced retractions due to fraud. A LOT of the literature is shit. I’m not saying science is shit. I’m a scientist, I assert there is no way to understand the world other than through science. I’m saying the majority of the literature is shit.

And so are 90% of statistics
37.645% of all statistics are made up on the spot.

Yes, obviously this Chinese paper is garbage, but science is not.
