Nobody is calling you a lying monster.
In 2025, we published 2 studies, with @elisabethbik.bsky.social as one of the co-authors. All problematic studies were mentioned (including DOIs).

Peter Thiel - sponsor Trump - noemt democratie een mislukt experiment en stelt dat vrouwen en ‘poor people’ nooit stemrecht hadden moeten krijgen. Dat schrijft hij aan Epstein. Die Thiel dus, ontwikkelt een deportatie-app voor I.C.E. en daar stroomt dus NL pensioengeld heen. Onsgeldtelt.nl : teken!
