This won’t be the last time we see it:

1. Pick your grievance and write whatever nonsense you want.

2. Frame the title as as a ridiculous strawman that no one actual disagrees with.

3. Publish your argument in the Journal of Controversial Ideas

4. Run to the sympathetic media, yelling and pointing to your article title and the journal title: “See, even questioning this strawman is controversial in academia”
