Tiny Fake Dinosaur in Amber Embarrasses Evolutionists
They sure did pick the right location for the Darwin Ranch, what with being near Deception Pass and all. (Not the one in Washington, this is where you take Folly Road past Stinking Lake, which is not as bad as it sounds.) These folks even deceive themselves.
We have seen how silly stuff passes the gasconaded peer review process and that retracted papers are still referenced, resulting in zombie science. A claim of the world's tiniest dinosaur has been refuted despite resistance, but the fake news is still there.

Many of the world’s top paleontologists were again recently fooled by their own preconceived ideas. This time it was a tiny skull trapped in amber that was declared a hummingbird-size dinosaur and named Oculudentavis. The initial report was published as the cover story in Nature in March 2020. However, nearly as soon as it was published, a second paper was submitted to Nature showing that the fossil was a lizard and not a dinosaur. Nature’s editors promptly rejected the rebuttal. The authors of the refuting article had to publish their paper in a Chinese journal instead.
To finish reading this short but informative article, see "World's 'Tiniest Dinosaur' Is Just a Lizard". In the short video below, the propaganda remains in place. Some commenters said that it's a lizard, but the author of that video argued that since it's classified as a dinosaur, it's a dinosaur. Uh, yeah. I'll try to get the link archived in case it gets taken down.
