Contrary to what the author said, the magazine that published the Sokol hoax was not comprised of sociologists and they were not employing faux science. Indeed, they were not sociologists at all. They were post modernists who denied the reality of objective reality. That is, they rejected the epistemological foundations of empiricism on which science is based. While I think that post modernism is gibberish, I would hope that someone attempting to make a point about the flaws in their method would at least understand what they were.
