Scientists stopped doing real science many years ago (I am a Geo-Physicist by training that shifted into computer science).
The key to identifying propaganda masquerading as "science" is whether or not it can be independently reproduced. That capability is not optional - it is critical in catching and correcting mistakes in experimental data, etc.
Almost no science can be reproduced these days... it is all fake, designed to support political agendas and narratives for the most part. That trend really accelerated with the fake climate science of the mid-2000's, and has only spread and gotten worse ever since.
By the way, the PDO (Pacific Decadal Oscillation) and the AMO (Atlantic Multi-Decadal Oscillation) have a significant impact on Earth's temperatures, especially when they are either both hot of both cold at the same time.
