- Published marketing research is laughable. Any psychologist will tell you how hard it is to change behaviour. Mainstream advertising is a suckers game, run on legacy ideas, by kids from business schools. (And I have a Bach in advertising/business).

- Yeah, it definitely seems like a pseudo. I understand why a pseudo might be useful (e.g., an american jewish scholar publishing something critical of Israel), but in such a case, the editor would have a responsibility to verify that the need is legitimate. Here, it's clearly deceptive intent.
- ohhh, hadn't occured to me it could be a sock puppet. I definitely have work to do today... but I suppose I'll do some idle snooping.
- Looks like an pseudo. OSF profile starts in Nov 2023, twitter account starts in Jan 2024. Posts exclusively about the paper. Tried to do a little triangulating. Any of the usual suspects particularly interested in Korea? That seems a big thing for Mr. Sun.

- She used to be at Lancaster, one of the top critical business schools in the country! They were explicitly captical C critical. It was the same there. The koolaid has been drunk to the drop.
- My partner is in a business school, and it's almost not worth doing co-authored work. It's often second guessed in promotion cases.
- Something something, casual racism and profiling. He also has a substack (davidsun.substack.com) but there's only one post on it, and it's about his paper.
- I'm not saying folks without affiliation shouldn't be allowed to publish, but editors should take a closer look when that comes across the dashboard...
- It took a bit to track this dude down. But starting here: attackthesystem.com/2025/04/11/a... His twitter is a hot mess. At this point, you have to be a bit racist to be on twitter. But he's proper racist.
