#'in academia you have to cite-' yes. and lots of marginalized people also get their research stolen by supervisors #or by others who are deemed more worthy #there's a huge problem in stem research with unreplicable results #and financing by MIC and industry actors who want one result only #in the humanities funding is very pointed and defined by political goals too #and yes publish or perish is a real thing and bad/plagiarized work isnt caught nearly as often as it should be #look. putting this all on like. youtube 'bad actors' or even just youtube is doing a major disservice to the real underlying causes #and why said 'bad actors' have monetary and structural incentive to act the way they do #and get rewarded for it #eli talks
