Must be because of what i posted.
instead of the article being scrutenized (and educating people on how to detect pseudoscience) the post got removed.
At least i got a nice reply showing what was someone's reason for doubting the scientific process of that publisher.. before it got moderated.
Maybe it's possible to use a flags of some sort, to indicate that, even though it's a scientific publication and was peer reviewed, that this Lemmy community thinks it's a bad piece. (but not by up/downvote as a downvote means it goes to the end of the pile, and the education effect is lost)
Like, i want to put this article under your attention, so that i get an idea of what others think about it https://bmjpublichealth.bmj.com/content/2/1/e000282 But i'm afraid to post it, because of the possible backlash(i.e. moderation and maybe banning?)
imo, it's more stupid that there's no mainstream news coverage about this ruling against FDA. i haven't found a single site reporting about it. you?
