Lior Pachter is pretty good at calling balls and strikes on this sort of thing
Hey, sorry, I googled but he has a lot of work and I couldn't find where he talks about fraud (or lack thereof) in science. If you have a link handy would you mind sharing?

I don't keep in touch with anyone I went to school with, no. I also don't keep in touch with many past colleagues beyond a yearly checkup, if at all. Sorry, but your assumption about how the world works / should work isn't applicable to everyone. Some people don't have the capacity to do so.
Some people can't see color either, and unfortunately their life is more difficult because of it. But seeing color is the expected outcome for most, and the world is built with that assumption in mind. If you aren't making connections you are unfortunately at a severe disadvantage. To the extent you're self-aware to realize this, you may be able to correct it. Otherwise, like anything else, you learn to adapt.
Your tone also comes off as incredibly patronizing, as though you know my life better than I do.
Rest assured, not keeping in touch with old contacts has not caused me to miss any opportunities that I would be otherwise interested in.
