I see the context of the post as, "replicability crisis is an overhyped right wing talking point". Which bad actors used to destroy whole fields.
I agree that this is what happened (i.e. field destruction).
But to claim that all is hunky dory on the science side is incorrect.
![“All of these substances can be called marker reagents, but it is precisely 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene that is the most important among them. Someone might even call it a precursor, but that would be incorrect, since a precursor is the base to which another substance is added to obtain the target compound, so in this case we are dealing with that second substance. Among all the other reagents, which may include ordinary solvents, this is the most reliable marker.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nliexqovgtyrjyvnshdhydyo/bafkreihygwbvcwovo2su3zamnmhfrbshzm5bxfl5n5kawr2xrnvjerdxwi)
![1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene also known affectionately as DBU. Possibly one of the most common organic bases.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nliexqovgtyrjyvnshdhydyo/bafkreie6k47zpbxmhdaiaahxg4s7uv7k6usqie4bv4dayqcuarrebucoua)
