Boghossianism-Lindsayism-Pluckroseism

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."

Sass-a-lina Jolie

A girl that is smug, sassy, never smiles... who is all business and works against you, or has no interest in you talking to her... whether being jovial conversation or an advance. Word play off Anglina Jolie's name.

1.That bitch won't give me the time of day. She's a Sass-a-lina Jolie.
2. Come'on Sassalina Jolie, can I get a smile?

Mr. Lindsay

1. An individual who's father still pays his bills despite being married with children.

2. An manipulative individual who lies about himself to impress other grown men.

3. An individual who was coddled his entire life and never learned how to be a real man, and spends money like a housewife.

4. An individual who has no friends due to character flaws, and is known to stab genuine people in the back out of fear of being exposed.

Brian is a manipulative worthless excuse for a man, did you hear how he spent all his wife's money, then has to ask his dad to cover their utility expenses? He was just buying things to impress his social media friends, who he has never even met. He's really behaving like a Mr. Lindsay. That's some Mr. Lindsay type behavior. I hope his social media friends will take him in once his wife leaves him. Shame on him.
