It's science that has found evidence proving the corporation backed studies wrong.

Why not "science" as a paint brush?

People throw around the word "science" interchangeably with "the scientific method", but they are not the same. The idealised concept you have in your head of great minds discovering the workings of the universe is purely fictional. Academia is filled to the brim with financial interests and egos. You may trust the philosophy of science, but it's only a philosophy.
>>
>>16213172
Science did that on its own without any human intervention? Of course not, it's all humans. What's really pissing people off is when humans says "trust the science" or "believe in science" and scream "science denier" at anyone who questions the humans calling themselves science. And then when they're found out to be lying sacks of shit, people like you who were quiet before suddenly pop up to say "oh, that's not science, that's just people doing bad things, continue to believe science".
Fuck off with that shit! Science doesn't get to be a synonym for truth and then when something turns out to be wrong, toss off those as something done by a human, not science. Really tired of this "scientize wins, humantize failures" double standard that science worshipers do to make themselves above question.
>>
>>16212580
You shouldn't trust science because there aren't any scientists smart enough or honest enough to recognize a toxic greed addiction system. Those scientists are in on the take.

Also, constantly evolving misinformational beliefs will never turn into truth one day. Basically an addiction-based religious system for the top 10% who own everything to profit even further while everyone else gets drops.

Addiction is diametrically opposed to freedom.

Yes. If you enroll in a psychology degree and answer the test questions truthfully (for example by writing that the DSM is unscientific and baloney and does not contain real diagnoses, whenever you're asked something about the DSM) you will fail the tests and you will not get a degree and thus not a professional working in the field.

When is it time for you people to concede that the current institution is an absolute joke? This notion of "science" being a shining beacon of truth is just a delusion of a pure philosophical ideals. In the real world, it's packed to the brim with malicious actors and downright retards. Is the implementation of your ideal really working?
>>
>>16216636
Like every system it is imperfect and a minority of corrupt and bad actors cause significant problems for everyone else: It happens in politics, it happens in law enforcement, it happens in the judicial system, it happens in medicine, it happen education, etc.

All it proves is that the research sector is just as imperfect as anything else, and the price of its continued positive contributions to society is constant vigilance for the bad.

are you suggesting that you, or anyone else, reads and independently verifies every piece of scientific literature published?
of course not. people have to have a faith, or trust in the people that publish and distribute research for progress to be made.

it is natural and proper for people to lose faith in an establishment when the foundations are shown to be faulty.

it seems to me that you just want to have a pointless argument over semantics instead of trying to interpret someone's post in a sensible way.

science isn't about faith, it's not an establishment, and if you want to criticize its foundations, then please do so. I can't see what's faulty about them.

you just fundamentally misunderstand or at least misrepresent what science is. To give you an analogy, it's like if you saw some out of context photographs used for propaganda, and you decided that it means people shouldn't have faith in journalism. You're blending together a concept with the way it's applied. Psychiatric science is about organizing our knowledge of mental disorders, one step of it was the DSM which was the organization of knowledge from expert psychiatrists of the time, trying to get a consensus on certain points when there was very little, and trying to move towards a unified method to diagnose mental disorders. It's an important step because it lets psychiatrists then test this classification that people agreed on, and try to see what's wrong about it so that they can correct it. And the part that are right can be used in research to test new drugs and therapy in a way that can be repeated by different operators with similar results. it's far from perfect but it's a step forward. Science isn't a bible that drops on your desk complete from the start.

Unfortunately, this is just the No True Scotsman fallscy. It's akin to saying Soviet Russia wasn't real communism. It might be technically correct, but it's kind of irrelevant. Science exists in the world as it is. You can idealize it in your mind all you want, but it takes physical form in the world, and it should be criticized as such.
>>
>>16232577
Some seed oils are worse than others, but they're all bad. You're using a hardh chemical proceds to refine the part of the plant that is most highly chemically defended into an oil that we would have neber had access to in our millions of years of hominid evolution. It would be a miracle if seed oils WEREN'T toxic. Also, as >>16232580 pointed out, linoleic acid has been identified as a lolely culprit in the adverse health effects of consuming seed oils like canola oil.
>>
>>16232580
All the articles say its beneficial but in our corrupt world that means shit. I was curious about the arguments against it.

>Consumption of linoleic acid has been associated with lowering the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and premature death. There is high-quality evidence that increased intake of linoleic acid decreases total blood cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein.
>The American Heart Association advises people to replace saturated fat with linoleic acid to reduce CVD risk.
>>
>>16233849
>You're using a hardh chemical proceds to refine the part of the plant that is most highly chemically defended into an oil that we would have neber had access to in our millions of years of hominid evolution.

Wait. You're saying the oils are dangerous. If I just eat the seeds then it's fine, afterall we've consuming raw seeds for a long time due to easy access.

>linoleic acid has been identified

But eggs also have linoleic acid.
>>
What about the proteins in peanuts. Are they just as good as meat protein? A lot of fitness products advertise peanuts due to their protein content.
>>
>>16234400
I'm saying seeds are bad, but seed oils are much worse.

Eggs have nowhere near the percentage of linoleic acid in their fat that seed oils do, especially if you eat truly pastured eggs. If the chickens eat a lotof seeds, their eggs will be higher in linoleic acid. If they're allowed to roam around and eat their natural diet, their eggs will have extremely low linoleic acid content.
>>
>>16234400
>>16234619
To clarify, seed oils are concentrating the unhealthy oils in a way that would be impossible to achieve by eating the unprocessed seeds. You'd have to eat something like 80 ears of corn to reach a few tbsp of corn oil.

>The intervention group had significant reduction in serum cholesterol compared with controls (mean change from baseline −13.8% v −1.0%; P<0.001). Kaplan Meier graphs showed no mortality benefit for the intervention group in the full randomized cohort or for any prespecified subgroup. There was a 22% higher risk of death for each 30 mg/dL (0.78 mmol/L) reduction in serum cholesterol in covariate adjusted Cox regression models (hazard ratio 1.22, 95% confidence interval 1.14 to 1.32; P<0.001). There was no evidence of benefit in the intervention group for coronary atherosclerosis or myocardial infarcts. Systematic review identified five randomized controlled trials for inclusion (n=10808). In meta-analyses, these cholesterol lowering interventions showed no evidence of benefit on mortality from coronary heart disease (1.13, 0.83 to 1.54) or all cause mortality (1.07, 0.90 to 1.27).

>Available evidence from randomized controlled trials shows that replacement of saturated fat in the diet with linoleic acid effectively lowers serum cholesterol but does not support the hypothesis that this translates to a lower risk of death from coronary heart disease or all causes. Findings from the Minnesota Coronary Experiment add to growing evidence that incomplete publication has contributed to overestimation of the benefits of replacing saturated fat with vegetable oils rich in linoleic acid.

Animal protein is much more bioavailable than plant protein in general. Seeds especially, like peanuts, are full of anti-nutrients like phytic acid that actively prevent the absorption of nutrients. If you ate the equivalent amount of protein from peanut butter and meat (which, frankly, would not even be possible because it would require copious amounts of peanut butter and it would give you severe digestive problems, but for the sake of argument let's just say...), you would get more amino acids into your cells from the meat.
