Myth 1: Preprints aren’t peer-reviewed, so they must be low quality

The oligarchs were terrified by the mobilization of the left in the 1960s: Huntington's so-called “excess of democracy”. They planned counter-institutions to delegitimize & marginalize critics of capitalism & imperialism. They bought the allegiances of the two ruling political parties. They imposed obedience to neoliberalism within academia, government agencies & the press. They neutered the liberal class & crushed popular movements. They set the FBI on anti-war protestors, civil rights, Black Panthers, American Indian Movement, Young Lords & other groups that empowered the disempowered. They broke labor unions, leaving 90% of the workforce without union protections. Critics of capitalism & imperialism, eg, Chomsky & Ralph Nader, were blacklisted. The campaign, laid out by Lewis Powell Jr in his 1971 memorandum titled “Attack on American Free Enterprise System,” set into motion the creeping corporate coup d'etat, which five decades later, is complete. The differences between the two ruling parties on substantive issues — such as war, tax cuts, trade deals & austerity — has become indistinguishable.
