Central Asian Tribal Nomadic People related to Mongolia are the ones who developed the making of FELT. It is made by wetting raw wool and pressing it between two large blankets. The blankets are then rolled up like a giant jelly-roll, and the people (usually the women) pat and pound the roll in unison, causing the moistened fibers to mesh together and make a solid fabric. It is the most primitive form of fabric production, having no loom, and hence, no warp or woof threads. The Roll is unrolled revealing the finished felt, which is used for clothing, footwear, and the famous Yurt Dwelling, which is felt stretched over a collapsible wooden lattice. If anything, Felt is an expression of Central Asian Culture, and nothing more, as it is inanimate, neutral, and non-threatening. To sane people anyway.
OK...where's MY grant money?

Using quantum theory to shape a theory of self-touching, Barad explains how a particle touches itself, and then that touching subsequently touches itself, releasing an infinite chain of touching touches. I would love to corner this woman and ask her to identify and describe a quantum function. I'll bet she has no clue, but she thinks that using the word establishes her as an intellectual.
I recently read a study in which the researchers found that when people of low IQ (sorry, I don't remember the cut-off value) are asked to read a word salad, they think that it is deep and profound. Some reported being profoundly moved by the insights they believed they were reading. Higher IQ people recognized the word salad as nonsense immediately.
This causes me to wonder if low-IQ people interpret word salad as being profound because they cannot actually tell the difference between highly technical scholarship (such as one would find in any STEM publication) and pure nonsense (such as this woman wrote).

I’d like to know what people in the physics department there think about her appropriating their subject matter. I’d wager that they are too scared of the PC police to make a fuss.

Simulated academia. Has the form and some of the language, but nothing but a great void behind the mask.

She’s been sniffing too much toluene from those felt-tipped magic markers.

She’s brilliant. (Have you gotten anybody to pay you over a million dollars to spew drivel like that?)

practically every nationality has been a ‘colonialist’, from Inuit to Bantu, Apache to Mayan, Japanese to Mongolian, Indian to Persian to Egyptian. It is myopic, uneducated, propagandist and racist to single out a specific ethnic group as the only ‘colonialists’ in the world.
