    Because erowid does not meet the definition of a resource.

    Again.

    Links to resources is not itself a scientific resource.

    I defined for you multiple times what “scientific resource” means.

    Unlike erowid, maps actually conducted scientific research.

    That’s why they are listed as a resource.

    Even Wikipedia has people review the material.

    Erowid does not.

    You are uninformed about what science is. You refuse to acknowledge my definition. You know literally nothing about my research capabilities. Maybe I’m terrible at research but you wouldnt know one way or the other.

    Which makes your opinion uninformed and therefore irrelevant.

    Erowid are opinions of people who use recreational drugs. It’s not written by scientist. Or researchers. And research can be misunderstood by lay people.

    As I said. Some of the information may be accurate. Doesn’t matter. It’s still not a scientific resource.

    I, as a scientist, would not tell people to use lemmy or reddit to learn about neuroscience. I definitely wouldn’t advise using erowid for the same reasons.

    Citing a resource does not make the text a resource.

      I love how you’ve moved the goalpost on what a resource is. Erowid being the collection point of many valid, peer reviewed sources doesn’t meet your specific criteria, that ridiculous. That link went directly to a retirement of your argument and you just changed your argument. You are a bad researcher.
