mainstream news: distrust in research is because of all these dangerous misinformationists who won’t just obey unquestioned
research community: 
haha we’re bad at our jobs actually https://blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2021/07/05/time-to-assume-that-health-research-is-fraudulent-until-proved-otherwise/
@icedquinn Isn't this why we have peer reviews. ? @freemo or am I missing somnething ?
@icedquinn @freemo is this why we want better open access to science papers and journals to make the process more open. ?
🇳🇱
Open access, open review, peer review, and replication are all necessary elements to detect fallacies (whether intentional as fraud or not). Any of them, when applies in a healthy environment, will reduce fallacies, but they arent perfect.
@freemo @icedquinn Sounds good, It may be something I can talk to people about if / when working in a school or almost certainly at the a STEM group which I am trying to set up at the moment,
barrier to meeting at the moment is room at the library is owned by local council and we need their go ahead to use the rooms.
Sounds like something that we cna also add resources to on the discourse forum, collate links / ideas so going forward hopefully people (esp young people ) will have the right mindset, the rest of us can hold science to account especially if public funded via taxation.
Just a thought that, but i guess there are refinements within that.
I've been wanting to start a open-access open-review journal myself for sometime that might do well in that effort.
@freemo @icedquinn
Ok to this end

I have started a discussion on discourse, if the title / wording needs changing I am happy for the wording to be changed.
I've mentioned our peer tube instance to you before for hosting videos right? NP with hosting them yourself of course just thought you might be interested if I hadnt brought it up to you before.
@freemo @icedquinn That video was shared by @academicalnerd
on ttps://vidcommons.org But happy to share others. I think I will see what accounts I have on here actually.
I think i have a nextcloud account at least.
peertube is nice because it is specific to videos, it is federated, the bandwidth is shared througha torrent-like interface, and supports things like live streaming.
If you plan to post videos the peer tube instance is the way to go.
Feel free to look around. If you want an account just register and let me know and ill give you a quota so you can upload.
