Why do you think that asking questions, making a hypothesis, testing that hypothesis and writing down the results is unethical?
Ethical frameworks are detrimental to Scientific Study because Science is by nature unethical.

Why do you think the context of the testing doesn’t matter?
Nefara@lemmy.world 9 months ago
You said “science”, not any specific type or category of study, so if you mean a specific school of science is unethical you should make that distinction.

Have you ever asked a Scientist how they feel about the impacts of ethical frameworks on their study?

Don’t excuse a Nazi with mental disorders. Who do you think a person like this would choose to be unethical with? his parents? No probably the people he hates.

This is incredibly ignorant, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

To the pure science itself yes, but not to the larger environment resp. individuals. That’s why there are usually checks in place.

How can we have a proper double blind study if we are forced to tell the participants information that could impact the results of the study in order to gain informed consent?
JASN_DE@feddit.org 9 months ago
That does not invalidate a double-blind study.

Is the sentence hard to understand?

You just lumped all of “science” together. Even the science of documenting birdsong?

It’s not hard to understand, despite being badly formulated, it’s just very questionable.

its just hard to understand how something so stupid can be said
The Wiki page defines ETHICS as
Ethics is the philosophical study of moral phenomena. Also called moral philosophy, it investigates normative questions about what people ought to do or which behavior is morally right.
What you are doing is anthropomorphizing science. When science is a system of understanding nature.
And without ethics in science, we get nightmare bastardization of science.

And scientific study is unethical… How?
Arkouda@lemmy.ca 9 months ago
Scientific study is by nature unethical because one must do unethical things in it’s pursuit. We have ethical frameworks around Scientific Study for a reason, and it isn’t because it was doing fine without those frameworks.

Ah yes, everyone knows how famously unethical astronomers are, they should respect the privacy and consent of supernovas. Filthy perverts peeping on those innocent stars!
