pretending the only way anybody comes to a conclusion about anything is by reading peer-journals is an absurdly myopic view of epistemological practices in the real world

Nobody is pretending that's the case...

  • your argument was that it's laughable on its face that anyone should be more skeptical of one claim vs another a priori

    • No, it's that it's hypocritical to make a bunch of unfounded claims and then whine that someone who is conducting actual research and trying to be objective isn't doing it well enough or whatever.
