Unfortunately, much of the social sciences and humanities have been tainted with such agenda-driven research for decades, gradually culminating to what we are now watching spilling over to the hard sciences/medicine and general society. This includes the main traditional disciplines, not just the recently made up fields of "XXX-studies".
For instance, for several years now there have been authors in academic philosophy openly arguing for something like a complete overhaul of basic epistemic standards--things that have been discussed by philosophers for thousands of years--to align with promoting 'woke' agendas.

I have to wonder if Mallory Walker has ever heard of Trofim Lysenko. I have to assume yes, but I guess like all activists, Mallory's politicization of science will go well, is done with the best of intentions, and will have no unintended consequences.
ANONYMED: It is of course true that medicine has at different times been racist, sexist, homophobic, antisemitic, anti-Catholic, and probably anti a bunch of other stuff too.
The above is, OFF COURSE and not true, at all. "Medicine" has never been any of those things. Some doctors and nurses may have been.
With respect to the author's link to the Canadian Medical Association Journal and its article promoting support for CRITICAL RACE THEORY, I replied with, quote:
Why do you people publish this anti-white, Marxist, racist, "promote-class struggle" unintelligent garbage?
I noticed that there had been no, quote "published responses" to the article. I hope that there were thousands of unpublished responses similar to mine.
You state: If we're being charitable, the MMR-autism paper illustrates the fact that journals occasionally publish things that turn out to be flat-out wrong, no matter how rigorous the review process.
I find it interesting that certain groups in academia, after all Big Pharma's corruption has been revealed over the past few years, will still only agree that the covid gene therapy vaccines are dangerous but still tout all the others as successful and valid without ever having looked at the actual data from an objective point of view. The 'safe and effective' mantra has been uttered for many years and is a difficult one to let go of.
Have you actually looked into ALL the peer-reviewed data that backs the MMR-autism link?
Do you know how safety is determined with vaccines coming to market versus drugs?
Have you reviewed the court documents and testimony from pediatricians who witnessed children slide into autism after 'routine' vaccines?
Have you read Robert Kennedy's book The Real Anthony Fauci?
Maybe you ought to.
If you're genuinely interested in exactly how safe routine vaccines are, might I suggest you have a look at Aaron Siri's newsletter. Aaron is a US attorney who has been taking pharma to court for years - representing the families of children who were seriously damaged from vaccines. Court testimony reveals one vaccine was given the green light after 4 days of safety review. FOUR DAYS!!!!! Do you think that is sufficient time to gather data to determine safety?
He has also been in the fight for a long time and despite Big Pharma's intentional campaign to discredit him, is quite intelligent and knowledgeable.
Are you aware of Dr. Jessica Rose's work? She learned just how safe the routine childhood vaccines were when she started digging into the covid data. Maybe check out her substack here: https://jessicar.substack.com/
I'm not saying ALL vaccines are dangerous, but they certainly aren't safe for everyone and parents have NEVER been given full informed consent. EVER. Come to think of it - doctors haven't been given all the information either.
The integrity of the medical profession IS in jeopardy because of the refusal to see how deep the corruption actually runs in medicine.
How many times does a liar have to lie before you accept he is not trustworthy?
mRNA vaccines are not gene therapy. Robert Kennedy is not a good objective source for anything. You should indulge yourself in a good internet exercise called fact checking. Or debunking. Jessica Rose and her work has been thoroughly debunked by factcheck.org, NIH, who withdrew her papers on myocarditis adverse events, by Reuters.com fact checker, by AFP.com fact checking, by BC CDC, et cetera et cetera. Et cetera. Aaron Siri is a shameless ambulance chaser whose specialty is cherry picking facts with the express goal of lining his own pockets with the proceeds of scurrilous lawsuits.
You have one like on this post. And I have one like on my post concerning a 6 month check of efficacy of a vaccine as distinct from a presumed "4 DAY!!!" check of efficacy. I can tell that my "like" came from Penny Hodgson herself. I wonder if your like came from Penny as well, although she didn't directly reply to either of us. Penny is interesting because she has suffered both medical abuse and abuses of trust from "natural authority figures" such as her father and an older brother-in-law. So she has "trust issues" with most authorities including "big pharma", per her post. She gravitates toward weak or abusive males and less abusive female authority figures. She even seems to like a Marxist psychologist who "thinks" that capitalism must be overthrown in "order" to correct Western "psyches" --- some guy named Gabor with a very sad-sack face and Marxist political leanings, who, of course, dislikes Jordan Peterson. Here is "why" the distrust
When some idiot medical guy who had never done a correction of hip dysplasia, tried to correct Penny's problem, he "forgot" to shave support bone from an area of superfluous bone to WEDGE into an area he had corrected by cutting through one bone to change an angle so that the ball part of her leg bone would stay in its hip socket rather than slide out of the socket. He just pinned bones together, but didn't support the pinned-together- bones with additional bone wedged into the "changed angles" he had tried to correct. So the pins came out under the stress of walking on basically "floating" unsupported bone pieces. This is, of course, an inaccurate description. I read the details more closely at her substack. But it was something like that which she figured out later, after several more operations.
The first time idiot doctors worked on her, they did nothing about the hip dysplasia and operated on her feet of all things!!! So she has been medically abused "times" much more than once. Then there is the other abuse-stuff on her substack by weak and illegitimate male bogus "authorities" --- differing from her father, who was a relatively reasonable authority figure with "0" emotional empathy or compassion.
There is even a quid pro quo section where she behaves toward her father; a relatively good "authority figure" with "0" emotional empathy; exactly the way he related to her when she was young and suffering arguable medical abuse. He would say, in effect, to her, when young:- "Quit Crying, you're embarrassing me." or some such. When she is much older and still going through surgeries [and is real tough about them, like her dad wanted her to be when she was a child] her old man has had enough of the medical abuses of his still [in his own mind] "little girl" and expresses his fear about her surgery to her doctor or some staff member and she gives him the same sort of "suck it up stupid and be tough" lecture that he gave to her as a child.
Fascinating. You two should become friends. You, Ms. Malis, seem to recognize legitimate authority figures. Penny still seems to be gravitating toward illegitimate authority figures --- especially this "sad sack" Marxist person. One last thing --- abused individuals like indirect communications and to cross-check multiple sources, which is why I wrote this to you, rather than to Penny directly.
I don't think that the FDA can answer my question on perjury. I was just kidding. My guess is that they reviewed a bunch of results for 4 days. Is that what you meant? I prefer you as the source for what you wrote.
I did a "Happy Quick Read". Q. What does a Hepatitis B "blurb" on the side effects of that vaccination have to do with some vaccine that had a "green light" after 4 days of safety review?
In three clinical studies, 434 doses of RECOMBIVAX HB, 5 mcg, were administered to 147 healthy infants and children (up to 10 years of age) who were monitored for 5 days after each dose.
It was under 6.1 entitled CLINICAL TRIALS EXPERIENCE.
I take it that you think that they should monitor these Hep B vaccine recipients for a lot longer than 5 days --- I mean your original 4 DAYS!!!
But you'd have to go back to the blurb and realize that the doses of the vaccine were administered at 0, then One and then 6 months. So the study took at least 6 months per individual times 147 individuals.
You know the old saw --- liars damn liars and statisticians.
But really: Who do you KNOW that was apparently harmed? It is usually something like that.
that's not what that package insert means at all. if you're going to run around yelling Bad Big Pharma (and I hope you never, ever avail yourself of any of the benefits of pharmaceuticals because that would be, you know, hypocritical), you should at least understand how to read and understand package inserts and product monographs.
Thanks for the excellent and interesting post!

AUTHOR: Court testimony reveals one vaccine was given the green light after 4 days of safety review. FOUR DAYS!!!!!
QUESTION: Was the testifier convicted or acquitted of perjury?
Kevin
Here's a link for you Kevin. It is from the FDA - I assume you are ok with that source?
Happy reading:

Hi Penny:

I did a "Happy Quick Read". Q. What does a Hepatitis B "blurb" on the side effects of that vaccination have to do with some vaccine that had a "green light" after 4 days of safety review?
Gee. Are we on the same page? I was attempting to qualify my statement so I provided proof.
The Hep B vaccine was given the green light after 4 days of safety review. The insert is proof of the safety review.
THERE IT IS:
In three clinical studies, 434 doses of RECOMBIVAX HB, 5 mcg, were administered to 147 healthy infants and children (up to 10 years of age) who were monitored for 5 days after each dose.
It was under 6.1 entitled CLINICAL TRIALS EXPERIENCE.

Where? Quote it. I'll believe you.
