so peer review is not selective? lol ok

from google, "the benefit of peer review"

Peer review is a very important process that authors have to go through before they are able to publish their research manuscript. The main purpose is to ensure that whatever comes out published is in its excellent form, i. e., virtually free of errors

*forehead meet wall*  You still do not understand it.  There is not a hierarchy of upper ranking individuals you send your data to.  It's a "peer" review.  Your equals. You submit your work to a reputable peer review journal, they forward it to your peers (scientist and peers remain anonymous to each other to remove bias), they try to replicate your results and look for flaws and then submit it back to the journal for publication.

They don't get sent to Einstein, Tesla or Edison (they are all dead anyway) or any other scientists just because they are popular or well recognized.

And any "selection" you refer to is merit based.  Does your data prove what you claim?  If you wrote that humans evolved from pigs but presented horrible evidence, then be ready for journals to reject your work. If your evidence was solid and reproducible by peer review, get ready for publication and the Nobel prize.

"There is not a hierarchy of upper ranking individuals you send your data to."

i never said that there was... wtf... where did you get the idea that i said that? i didn't post it

 

"And any "selection" you refer to is merit based."

so why did you claim that its not selective? and how can you be selective without having some type of structure for that assessment?

 

"They don't get sent to Einstein, Tesla or Edison"

but they are at the top of the hierarchy of respected scientists... which is what i said... i never said that they would be assessing reports
