      That is precisely the point we are trying to show. These papers didn't get in because of carelessness or fluke. They got in because peer review genuinely favours these ideas & even requires them. We've been saying this for years and being accused of strawmanning identity studies. https://twitter.com/JohnQPublic100/status/1050046512233926656 …

      When academics respond to our terrible papers saying they are actually sound, this is very useful to us in demonstrating what we have been arguing about what values and epistemology this kind of scholarship actually values.

      Our papers do not show that it is bad to work on an epistemology which believes that knowledge is a construct of power perpetuated by discourse. It shows that this epistemology is perfectly acceptable and even required within certain subdisciplines.

      Therefore, our papers will not have much impact on the people who know this is already happening and think it's great. We hope it will have some impact on the people, mostly liberal academics, who have been telling us this isn't really happening & scholarship is still rigorous.

          It has had an effect on non academics also. We're much less like to cede to the authority of someone showing PhD credentials in these dubious subjects I've seen people refuse to debate non academics on identity issues, speaking of not being here to educate the ignorant.

          Replying to @HPluckrose

          I would hope this has an effect, but it may be more effective to argue that lax epistemology is actually a threat to the social justice values they hold dear. Their discourse is itself a system of power which prevents uncovering of truth about social justice.
