100% valid criticism. While they deserve credit for the retraction itself and drawing attention to that retraction, a proper mea culpa about the serious editorial mistake would be nice.
Congrats on making it all the way to "we're going to admit that we *shouldn't* be using this retraction as an opportunity to punish, because that's awfully stupid, but... we're sort of going to do it anyway; it's just so much easier once you've already got an admission of error."
I don’t admit that at all. And I don’t think expecting Quillette to do some soul searching in the wake of being hoaxed is a “punishment” — it’s what we ask of academia post Sokal Squared. And to you great point up top, it’s what we should ask of mainstream press.
Asking for what you claim to want is almost always pointless unless accompanied by some evidence that you actually want it. I'm not seeing it.
Do you genuinely think that is a good faith reading of what I wrote?
