We worship consensus, deceptive statistics, grant chasers, and propaganda.

The whole "publish or perish" mentality in a academia is a bigger issue than most realize. The volume of low-quality research that is published is far and away out pacing credible material. Especially research aimed at political hot-topics touching on the environment, public health, gun-control, and social sciences; overwhelming garbage that is mindlessly and proudly parroted by the media and Left Wing Nut Jobs.
