I haven’t looked it up but I’m guessing, modernize the language and swap out men for Jews, was just about all it took.

It’s somewhat true(Tim has a problem with misleading titles)

But the real story is so much better.

The trio only came forward when the WSJ caught wind of this and interviewed them.

A
trio of concerned academics has published seven intentionally absurd
papers in leading scholarly journals, making bizarre recommendations
including chaining up children and keeping men on leashes.

The
trio say the papers, which used fabricated authors and credentials, are
an attempt to expose political bias in fields that study race, gender
and sexuality, which they see as being misled by biased research and
poor methodology.

Their papers argued for a
slew of bewildering positions, including chaining up privileged school
children as an educational opportunity and a push to include “fat
bodybuilding”’ in professional bodybuilding competitions as a way to
nullify fat shaming.

Another
paper rewrote a chapter of Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf, replacing parts
of Hitler’s political manifesto with terms including “solidarity
allyship”, “neo-liberal feminism” and “’multi-variate matrix of
domination”.

Each of the papers were
peer-reviewed before being published, meaning they passed the highest
level of critical assessment in their fields.

The
trio went public with the project after The Wall Street Journal
uncovered it, saying a paper which claimed dog parks are “petri dishes
for canine ‘rape culture’" was ridiculous enough to pique the
publication’s interest.

“We
intentionally made the papers absurd and used faulty methods to see if
they could pass scrutiny at the highest level of academia. Concerningly,
they did,” James Lindsay, one of the authors of the papers, said.

“A
rambling poetic monologue of a bitter, divorced feminist written by a
teenage-angst poetry generator shouldn’t be accepted as a scholarly
article worthy of publishing.”

In US
humanities departments an academic with seven papers published within
seven years is awarded tenure, an indefinite academic appointment. The
trio completed these seven papers within 10 months.

Not trying to say “Sis, we been knew” about the bias in academia thing buuuuuut….
