Answer:

The Internet (social media to be precise)

Step-by-step explanation:

False science are purported scientific conclusions drawn without any scientific data or procedures followed to arrive at such conclusions. These purported conclusions would have been irrelevant or not widespread without the internet or social media but the easy accessibility to social media globally has made "everyone" to be a scientist or even a publisher without scientific steps.

Some innocent individuals also help share (on the internet) these false science because of the inability to differentiate between the real scientific process and the ones done without any/some due scientific processes hence assisting in promoting these false science unknowingly. If there were no internet, these false sciences would not be this widespread as information will not travel this fast.
