These are the students who may some day rule over us (also: this is why Trump won)

First, I googled some of these words and they didn't all come up with definitions. English isn't German, you generally don't smash words together to form ideas.

In any case, I think this is the equivalent of educational fan fiction. This is like a toddler who mimics the sounds of words when they haven't quite understood what the adults are saying. At some point there needs to be evidence for causation and not just "accepted truths" amongst a radical group.

Part of me wants to make up my own paper topics that are similar in style. Here is an example.

"Using my advance studies in film I will prove that whales have been using echolocation to produce fossil fuels. Therefore, the Y chromosome is a myth and those who present themselves as males are actually a different species of violent humanoids descended from female space prospectors who were exposed to radioactive Pinot Grigio."

Tl ; dr I slammed a thesaurus against my keyboard repeatedly, then prayed to Dworkin before threatening to call rape on my professor if they didn't give me an A on this. I do such good work!

Seriously though: I'm a Masters student in Network Systems Engineering, and I've seen nothing even close to this level of pretentious. 99% sure this is almost complete word salad for the sake of obfuscation.

What the fuck does this have to do with /r/pussypass, and what the fuck does this have to do with Trump?

OP's post is awfully close to a Poe's Law version of academia. I tried to follow up the abstract by reading the Full Text PDF, but it's behind a paywall.

Can't tell from the abstract if author believes what she's saying or if she's made it this far on pure BS.

What does "feminist geophilosophy" have to do with geology?

Impact Factor:1.659

God I hope that's out of a 100 ranking.

tl;dr This thing I did in geology science made me think that what I learned from it could apply to feminism.

So basically it's a sociology piece.

This is a prime example of an intentional technique that feminists and sociologists have been using for decades. They use intentionally complicated language and lots of technical jargon and made up new terms in order to make their works inaccessible to the general public or non-sociologists. This is done to avoid rebuttals or debate, and create an echo chamber, where only the people very familiar with all the complicated terms they've invented can respond.

How does geology have anything to do with feminist theory?
