Nailed it!
Huge hoax?
-
How did they know the canvassers were gay? I mean, seriously? Did he hire Richard Simmons? Did they say, "hi, I'm a gay canvasser and can't wait to change your mind on some gay issues?" I'd like to know.
gay canvassers knocked on doors and talked openly about gay marriage, people's attitudes changed, lasted up to one year later (when the study ended), and spread to other people
this is absurd. also, sexual orientation interacts with sex, but dr. lacour does not report the sex of the political correctness gestapo - all we know is that gay bullies were more successful than straight bullies. -
Broockman totally ripped off those critiques from PSR. Someone noted the high reliability and normal looking data a while ago, questioning whether the data were falsified. The posts were taken down cause mods suck and stuff.
Maybe it wad DB himself making all those posts.

Wait, you're saying Richard Simmons is gay?!!!

was this a hoax to show that you can dupe the top journal in science into publishing politically correct pseudoscience?
This in no way predicts what actually happened. It's just some reactionary homophobic BS. Yes, LaCour is a liar, but the OP shouldn't get any credit for doubting the study for being 'politically correct.'

so you think an un pc study would have survived this long and gotten the s**tfaced asshole a job at Princeton? If it wasn't for Broockman and the others he would have gotten away with it because people do not seriously look into even really surprising results as long as they are lib pc.

Midway though his interview with BuzzFeed News, LaCour got a call. The interruption, he said when he called back: a professorship offer from Princeton University. How persuasive was their case? “It would be hard to say no.”

here is an actual idiot: you think if he had found the opposite result it would have beeen published anywhere close to Science?
a little intellectual honesty never harmed anyone
