Feminist Journal Accepted Hoax Anti-Male Re-Write of ‘Mein Kampf’

Breitbart: 

A feminist academic journal published a hoax paper based on Adolph Hitler’s “Mein Kampf” that had been rewritten with feminist buzzwords.

As a part of a wide-ranging hoax against various academic journals, Helen Pluckrose, James Lindsay, and Peter Boghossian submitted a reimagining of Adolph Hitler’s Mein Kampf to a feminist journal for publication. The team of hoaxers submitted a version of Mein Kampf that had been rewritten from the perspective of an intersectional feminist.

The paper, which was titled, “Our Struggle Is My Struggle: Solidarity Feminism as an Intersectional Reply to Neoliberal and Choice Feminism,” received strong praise from its reviewers in academia. “The reviewers are supportive of the work and noted its potential to generate important dialogue for social workers and feminist scholars,” the journal’s co-editor-in-chief said upon first review.

But listen to the paper’s author describe how it was constructed. “The last two thirds of this paper is based upon a rewriting of roughly 3600 words of Chapter 12 of Volume 1 of Mein Kampf, by Adolf Hitler, though it diverges significantly from the original,” the team wrote in a document about the hoaxes. “This chapter is the one in which Hitler lays out in a multi-point plan which we partially reproduced why the Nazi Party is needed and what it requires of its members. The first one third of the paper is our own theoretical framing to make this attempt possible.”  keep reading

  1. couple of ‘pull quotes’ from Volume 1, Chapter 12 ….

    “The future of a movement is conditioned by the fanaticism yes, the intolerance, with which its adherents uphold it … ”

    “To win the masses … no social sacrifice is too great.”

    “… the broad masses can never be achieved by half-measures, by weakly emphasizing a so-called objective standpoint, but only by a ruthless and fanatically one-sided orientation toward the goal to be achieved.”

    “The broad masses of a people consist neither of professors nor of diplomats. The scantiness of the abstract knowledge they possess directs their sentiments more to the world of feeling.”

    ” … hate is more enduring than aversion, and the impetus to the mightiest upheavals on this earth has at all times consisted less in a scientific knowledge dominating the masses than in a fanaticism which inspired them and sometimes in a hysteria which drove them forward.”

    … sounds, to me, like ol’ Saul Alinsky had a mentor

  2. @ ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ – Thanks for you researching that! I think most of those lines were contained in a non-memorable Obama rant. Just when he did it, it contained a lot more ‘I’s. Never have remembered any politician say so many words than Barry did, and afterward think WTF was that!

  3. as Hitlary said … “There is nothing but the Struggle”

    …. “Mein Furher … I can walk!”

    my reaction to all of this … “When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle.”
