No matter how and how much I mute the “grievance studies” hoax folks, they’re still lurking on my TL. I’m disappointed in all of you. That’s some bad content there.

To give a parallel if a scam artist or an abuser appears to have been taking advantage of people, we don't conclude "oh, no, people in 2019 are just too trusting". We say "these scammers are tricking people and undermining the general social contract".

That's the critical part I agree with you, but my main concern was not about the scamming itself, but how extreme some accepted papers were. Especially the one on experiential reparation for innocent members of "privileged students". https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theatlantic.com/amp/article/572212/ …pic.twitter.com/0RiPdbEdqR

Like with most extreme things and sociocultural movements, I'm not concerned about right and wrong in terms of what's claimed and argued for by these parties. It's about what the phenomenon means in my opinion. But thanks for your thoughts, it's elucidating!

Probably best to stop.

Ok but if there's something I'm missing or misunderstanding feel free to DM - I'd appreciate the perspective!

If I weren’t on vacation, I’d find some of the older threads people wrote on the hoax stuff. It was analyzed to bits. But regardless, they’re often terribly misinformed about how sciences work and decidedly authoritative about how it should. It’s an insufferable stance for me.

Thanks for responding, enjoy your holiday!
