      Agree with #2. But people please quit reinforcing inaccurate stereotypes. There is **zero** evidence that there’s more “worthless drivel” in gender studies than anywhere else.https://twitter.com/lymanstoneky/status/1052766924621279232 …

      Lyman Expand the House of Representatives Stone @lymanstoneky
      1. Much Gender Studies work is, as is becoming increasingly clear, worthless drivel, perhaps even damaging 2. Governments intervening in previously open academic institutions to shut down inquiry is bad, even if the specific inquiries being shut down are often worthless. https://twitter.com/lenka_drazanova/status/1052187710163742721 …

      Out of curiosity, what sort of evidence would allow us to compare the amounts of drivel across fields with diverse methods, purposes, and domains of applicability?

      I can’t think of any existing evidence that would allow us to compare fields. But a large scale Sokal^2 across a large number of fields (including economics!) obviously would

      Hmm...I think it might indicate the relevant *potential* for drivel, but perhaps not the *realized* drivel... But in any case, did you think that the failure of Sokal^2 to publish any papers in sociology journals suggests soc is more drivel-resistant?

      When the researchers produced actual crap their papers were universally rejected. It’s only when they started fabricating data (and and really understanding the relevant literature) that their papers were accepted.

      I thought they only fabricated data in one paper but managed to publish seven papers...?

      I’m pretty sure that was their coup d’état paper. The other important journal was Hypatia. But before you get too judgemental, please familiarise yourself with contemporary (non-feminist) philosophy scholarship!

      The remaing journals correspond in ranking to economics journals that would probably be suseptible to well-thought-out pranks, too (especially if the faked research supported a particular ideology)
