    Yeah that’s why science is such a failure. There’s no actual progress in forcing information behind paywalls, etc. This is a major part of how/why science is used for the profits of the few at the expense of violence, planetary destruction, etc. for everyone else.

    That’s exactly the point. If you want to be a researcher right now you have to play their game. You have to publish papers even if you don’t have anything. So people publish bullshit, use chatGPT, force their name on papers they haven’t contributed and so on.

    Meanwhile the science journals get paid by everyone and pay no one.

        just slapping your name on papers as a supervisor.

        So you have no idea what a supervisor does.

        Lol, it shows you don’t know how things really work. New bullshit cites old bullshit, it’s all a game of pretending. You can check the statistics of fraudulent papers and that is just takes into account the most obvious ones.
