I love it when people notice this.
-
it looks like you got memed into becoming a feminist scholar, man, I'm sorry you had to find out this way
-
I know I'm a feminist scholar now. That's what I set out to do. Thanks for noticing.
-
then why are you holding it out as a hoax? you engaged with the literature and wrote real papers and you're shocked when they're published?
-
if you can be intentionally stupid while playing by the rules of a system, putting forth obvious nonsense by any external standard, and it then accepts and integrates your contributions, this implies the system doesn't have an obvious nonsense detector, whatever rules it may have
-
it's like, Sokal's Feminist Room. if you manipulate the symbols the same as a real human being, what does your internal experience matter?
-
what's to stop me from saying "oh, those linguistics papers I wrote were intentionally stupid, it was all a hoax, linguistics disproven"
-
it seems like the only part that's doing any work is the "obvious nonsense by any external standard". but the real papers are also that
