Did you read the reviewer comments? All the 'this is an exciting paper' didn't sound like 'Sigh'...
Russ, watch out for "Selection Bias" when you see the word "Selected" in the phrase "Selected Reviewer Comments." When you watch a "man-on-the-street" interview montage on YouTube and everyone seems to be hilariously dumb, what do you conclude?
I guess it’s possible reviewers wrote ‘this is a very exciting paper’ recommended it for publication but actually thought ‘sigh’. Isn’t it also possible they liked the papers?
Russ, real people wrote those reviews. Those were the particular ones Selected, from among ostensibly a much larger number, to be Shown to you. If I'm trying to sell you an orchard that yields bad apples on average, I'm going to Show you a basket of the best Selected apples.
Stan, do you have any actual evidence or is this all conjecture?
Since the authors are incentivized to bias their Selection to reinforce their snarkily-written thesis, and did not bother giving us the Whole picture, it's highly unlikely that the Selected responses are representative. I don't assume anyone is good faith in Culture Warfare.
So, no. Ok, got it. 

Citing quillette in a complaint about low academic standards is like citing Trump in a complaint about sexual harrassment.
Common sense and rational thought are making a comeback!
I doubt it. At most they'll be more careful with the names of those who submit papers to these "academic" journals.
That may be true, but at the very least, the damage to public credibility of these institutions is done. They rely on the ability to manipulate public opinion and public policy, this will almost undoubtedly harm them there.
It seems that the subjective nature of postmodern philosophy leads directly to totalitarianism in the right political setting. As Feynman said ‘It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.’
What experiments do you use in philosophy?
lol this was not a systematic, controlled experiment. stop falling for this
Do you have trouble with comprehension
“His talk begins as foolishness and ends as evil madness” (Ecclesiastes 10:13) Excellent scripture burn!
One could laugh if it weren't so sad. Mostly for the minorities and disadvantaged individuals who will suffer as a result of the irresponsible grievance industry
Too poorly designed to show much. That few low-tier journals take a hoax paper aligning w/ claimed political bias doesn't logically imply that good papers that align or good papers that don't align don't get published. Hard to not see this too as ideological research.
What would be better tier joirnals?
The ones these researchers approached initially, and who rejected their hoax papers?
Exactly. These were obscure low tier open access journals with bare to None peer review accepting 7/20 hoax papers. This is blown out of proportion.
Just to be clear, only 6 of these 13 actually said these were fatally flawed papers. Other ones were either still in review or peers didn't consider them as fataly flawed.
