Poe's Law is a force of nature when it comes to pseudointellectual gibberish like academic feminism, gender theory, etc.
'Authors' in these fields are little more than jargonauts on a sea of obfuscation. The operating principle seems to be that a naive reader will assume that, since she can't really make any sense out of what's been written, that the writer must be on a higher plane of intelligence.
