You know, the funny thing about "peer-reviewed research" is that I can have any wacky theory in the world, and if I get a critical mass of "academics" to agree with my premise, they're going to review my "scholarship" and pronounce that it is worthy of publication, and thus legitimized by the hallowed halls of academia.
Doesn't mean that my wacky theory is any kind of valid in the real world, but a bunch of ivory tower "scholars" agree that it is according to them, so ipso facto, it *is* valid.
Great fucking system they have there. Perhaps they should apply the scientific method to their alleged "Social Science".
