“The Conceptual Penis is a Social Construct” Professor Boghossian remarked, “and we argued, among other things, penises are responsible for climate change."

And they sucked it up!
They have an even better hoax:

The term “Femi-Nazi” became all too accurate when a trio of academic tricksters participating in an elaborate hoax submitted portions of Adolf Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” rewritten through a feminist lens to a leading peer-reviewed feminist journal. The satirical paper was accepted this past academic year for publication by Affilia: Journal of Women and Social Work.
These guys aren’t right-wing ideologically driven white supremacist Trump supporters either. Peter Boghossian is a philosophy professor at Portland State University, and an “outspoken atheist,” who cannot stand Trump, or what comes out of his mouth and James Lindsay has a PhD in Mathematics, who refers to himself as “a renegade feminist,” and he believes we should have “gender studies” and thinks the Trump administration “is borderline an unmitigated disaster”
And yet, Professor Boghossian doesn’t blame “Trump” for “destroying our society.” He blames “the progressive left and their ideological driven studies.” That is what drove them to expose the mind rot of dishonest intellectualism that people in positions of responsibility base their opinions and policy decisions on.
Despite the gravity of the implications, this hoax has a humorous aspect. When Professor Boghossian speaks about their first bogus paper “The Conceptual Penis is a Social Construct” and “the dog humping paper,” that is “Rape Culture and Queer Performativity at Urban Dog Parks,” or whatever, you will have to wonder how anyone could take this stuff seriously.
James Lindsay and Peter Boghossian appeared on The Rubin Report to talk about when they pulled the wool over the eyes of the establishment social science community from June to October, of 2018. Dave Rubin, once described as a “classical liberal” and the host of The Rubin Report on YouTube, once a member of TheYoungTurks network, interviewed these two fine intellectuals on his network station for publication on February 18, 2019.
