A version of Sokal Bias named after the architects of the "Grievance Studies Affair"—the hoax papers submitted to academic journals in fields like gender studies, queer theory, and fat studies. The Boghossian-Lindsay-Pluckrose Bias uses the existence of these hoaxes to dismiss entire fields as fraudulent, ignoring that the hoax revealed weaknesses in peer review, not the worthlessness of disciplines. The bias assumes that because some bad papers were accepted, all work in these fields is suspect; because hoaxes succeeded, the fields themselves are hoaxes. It's Sokalism weaponized, using a single scandal to condemn entire traditions of scholarship.
Example: "He cited the grievance studies hoax as proof that gender studies was worthless. The Boghossian-Lindsay-Pluckrose Bias had done its work: one scandal, entire field dismissed. He never read the actual scholarship, never engaged with real arguments. The hoax was all the evidence he needed."

A version of Sokalism emerging from the Grievance Studies Affair, where the hoax is treated not as a critique of peer review but as definitive proof that entire fields are intellectually bankrupt. Boghossianism-Lindsayism-Pluckroseism is the ideology that because hoax papers were accepted, the fields they targeted (gender studies, queer theory, etc.) are illegitimate; because some scholarship is bad, all scholarship in those areas is worthless. It's Sokalism systematized, turned into a worldview that justifies dismissing vast areas of inquiry without engagement. Followers of this ideology don't need to read feminist theory; they just need to know about the hoax.
Example: "He'd built his entire critique of gender studies on the grievance studies hoax. Boghossianism-Lindsayism-Pluckroseism meant he never had to read actual feminist theory; the hoax told him everything he needed to know. He could dismiss an entire field based on a handful of fake papers—and feel intellectually superior doing it."
