It appears to have been retracted by the publishers because the authors failed to include a trigger warning.

Following an investigation into this paper, triggered by the Publisher and Editor shortly after publication, we have undertaken a number of checks ....

Hoax? That's impossible. This is the same place that publishes such rigorously factual masterpieces of of enlightenment as "The Perilous Whiteness of Pumpkins", "Drone Disorientations: HOW “UNMANNED” WEAPONS QUEER THE EXPERIENCE OF KILLING IN WAR", and "Childhood Gender Nonconformity and Children’s Past-Life Memories".

No, scholarly works don't get redacted for being hoaxes, they received the benefits of positive censorship, which is a service provided to help scholars by appeasing the terrorists/freedom fighters who threaten them. See "The Case For Colonialism":

Whilst this clearly demonstrated the essay had undergone double-blind peer review, in line with the journal's editorial policy, the journal editor has subsequently received serious and credible threats of personal violence. These threats are linked to the publication of this essay. As the publisher, we must take this seriously. Taylor & Francis has a strong and supportive duty of care to all our academic editorial teams, and this is why we are withdrawing this essay.

Stop treating dogs as a joke, did you know that dog parks are petri dishes of rape culture?

Not only is this "scholarly article" invalid because it fails to include a SINGLE citation of the KJV 1611 Bible (John 14:6, Acts 4:12), but it has also been retracted by the clerics of your atheist religion ("university professors") for being, and I quote, "a hoax paper, submitted under false pretences." Have you demented atheists nothing better to do than make things up and post them on the Internet? Sad.

That was a powerful post, Brother Jeb, but you made a minor mistake so I corrected it.

I've not used my photo as an avatar because it would be unfair to other people who don't fit western standards of attractiveness as well as I do.

Re: Our policy on avatars

I too had reservations over showing my real face, initially. I've had some assume they have seen my face in a porno (playing the role of an old hag being cheated on by an incestuous hubby getting it on with their sons as reported), which of course, I cannot control if they think so, but regardless, I chose to brave it and take my chances none of you would liken me as such.

You know, with enough slowflakes you have an avalanche. Would it be possible to use this?

No amount of snow will stand a chance against Jesus when he returns with sword and flame (Isaiah 66:16). Repent now or be melted!

Re: Our policy on avatars

I'd be willing to use a fake avatar to represent myself if I found a good one. Any recommendations?

This seems appropriate:
