Instead of citing individual studies, you typically link to broad, catch-all sites about the issue which contain counterarguments and studies disproving what you are trying to support, along with older, widely discredited research. You're not alone in this -- the barehead brigade also misrepresent sites and citations to serve their needs as well.
