Just Stuck On Stupid Syndrome

Using simulations that don’t include all the relevant physics … as is the case in the big simulations since quite obviously none of them properly address plasmas, currents and electromagnetic phenomena … is a sign of Stuck On Stupid Syndrome.
And the statement of Jorge Moreno, lead author of the study, that “[ I ]t’s been established for the last 40 years that galaxies have dark matter," given all the problems that have been pointed out about that statement in the past 40 years ... is Stuck On Stupid Syndrome, especially when the only response by the author to an observed problem with the model,was to twist one of those gnomish knobs and decide all is now well.
And you really have to roll your eyes when Moreno, who the article claims has “indigenous roots”, comes out and shows his wokeness by declaring "I feel a personal connection to these galaxies” ... "[M]any people of indigenous ancestry were stripped of our culture. But our core remains, and we are still thriving." Oh geeze, spare us!
Finally, the conclusion of the article ...
First, using simulations that have dozens of gnomish knobs that can be tuned to get any answer you want, and then believing the results … is a sign of Stuck On Stupid Syndrome.Large galaxies may steal dark matter from smaller galaxies they nearly collide with, new research suggests.
Scientists from the University of California, Irvine and Pomona College used computer models to simulate the evolution of a corner of the universe about 60 million light-years across.

... which just means the *researchers* have their hands out begging for more taxpayer $$$ because they have mortgages to pay ... and Pomona housing is pricy compared to the rest of the nation.Next, the researchers hope to find real-world massive galaxies in the process of stripping dark matter from their smaller neighbors, according to the statement.
