Once you take some distance from the subjects and gaze upon the production of these 'academics' you start to notice that their entire corpus is circumreferential with hardly any references going in from the outside other than to point out the fallacies of those 'studies'. The entirety of '-studies' subjects lives inside a world of its own where self-proclaimed 'experts' in self-invented 'fields' produce 'studies' which are then referenced by other 'academics' in their own 'studies'. This has created a vast corpus of nonsense [1] which is cited by activist-politicians as 'scientific proof' of the validity of their endeavours. Most of these '-studies' might as well have been produced by LLMs and it is not hard to predict someone will train a model to come up with new 'studies' to prove this point.
