Three Academics And Seven Hoax Papers Expose The Western Academy’s Deep Corruption | The Federalist
There was a time when academia was controlled by pseudoscience. Ideas of phrenology and craniometry, alchemy, para-psychology, Lysenkoism, and other ideological gibberish used to be funded.

I woke up to what might be considered the biggest-ever prank perpetrated by three Anglo-American academics in an attempt to showcase the fraudulent, cancerous disciplines that are spreading within the Western academy. In a course of one year, they came out with seven peer-reviewed hoax papers, all in feminist, post-modernist, gender and race studies, and sociology journals. One is quite literally a paraphrase of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” garbed in a feminist language.

Activist departments like these decide who will speak at a university, who will be de-platformed, and who will be protested. They write open letters signed by thousands of fellow travelers and activists to set a course of debate within academia and instigate students to violence. Their self-referential journals, often citing one another, notch up “peer reviewed” papers that are at best gobbledygook, and at worst ideological subversion. They publish inter-disciplinary papers, with which they hijack science, anthropology, economics, politics, philosophy, security, and international relations departments ...
But we already know where it is leading. The resultant cancer, as they say, is fairly evident. Recently a physicist was suspended from CERN for presenting perfectly scientific slides to explain why there’s a gender gap in science. The result was a female scientist’s hysterical tweet thread, and this man was James Damore-d.
Sir Tim Hunt’s career was previously destroyed in a similar way, for a misplaced joke. Not to mention the protests, deplatforming, riots, and capitulations of a vast majority of academia by this bullying minority, and their activist student armies.
The virus has already spread. The worst part? You are paying for it, in more ways than one. The taxpayers are paying for neo-Marxists and feminists to hijack higher education and shape society, and lead us toward a frightful, dystopic future.
