    We don't claim that these journals have no standards of knowledge. I, particularly, have gone into great detail trying to explain to people how the postmodern conception of knowledge works. We're showing that they're accepting of this one for people who think this is a strawman.https://twitter.com/GodsBeagle/status/1050059481340698624 …

    acknowledge that some of the rejections were pretty solid - showing that while you may not agree with the standards of knowledge in the field, it does actually have standards of knowledge. So my issue is not carrying out a "hoax" but

        Yes, but someone like @janeclarejones is both post structuralist and also accepts objective reality. bit of stereotyping going on, I think.

        When? We are addressing very specific ideas in very specific areas of studies. You cannot reasonably draw from a claim that some journals will accept cultural constructivist lunacy that we think Lacanian psychoanalytical feminists do? The debate between them is well known.

        I’m very sympathetic to your project, and struggle with the replacement of intellectual rigor w ideological solidarity. I do, however, worry about about the generalized critique of pomo phil, as if that’s a homogenous philosophical cosmos.

        I think a lot there’s a reckoning of sorts in the future for the American academy, and this is the philosophical vanguard. It’s fascinating to me that this highlights not just an institutional prob, but a issue brewing w/in modern reason itself

        I really look forward to a book-length treatment of the kind Sokal produced, which I think the three of you are uniquely positioned to produce.
