    maybe I wasn't quick enough with my ninja edit:

    and I wasn’t originally thinking of academics, just PMCs in general (who must ofc pass through the academy)

    You brought up academia so I decided to explore it, but I think we should agree about the most important part of the PMC imo, middle managers, corporate lawyers, advertisers, etc. Those were the people I had in mind with the meme.
