is not a science.

It isn't even a soft or pseudo science.

That is outright religion.

"I don't care what some rocks say. The earth is 6000 years old and not a day longer. Don't believe the lies put out by Satan to distract people from the war on evil!"

"I don't care what some national impartial database says. Porn causes rape. Don't believe the lies put out by MRAs to distract people from the war on the Patriarchy!"

/the other option they've come up with is to claim the definition of rape has changed drastically (so sort of like calling the FBI liars) or that for some reason the rate of unreported rapes has gone up astronomically and thus there has been an increase, just not a recorded one. That one could be plausible if they had more to back it than "but but but it must be true!" and "why do you hate women!?!?".
