Footnote 3 of Carl Edson's "Broken Mirrors: The Schism of Post-war Ke$han Scholarship" (2078, p.1)

3. Dr Branson's early papers regarding socio-distorted discourse, and the subsequent rebuttal to his claims on gender roles--spearheaded by Gayle's "Party Girlz: Glitter and Glam in Six Songs of Cannibal (2027)"--produced a fundamental new lens through which Ke$hanism could be viewed not necessarily as an actual academic discourse, but rather, through a Gödelian use of metafictional devices and "fourth-wall-breakage (p. 3)," a type of performance "in homage and honor [of] that greatest of all: Ke$ha. (p. 18)." This period would set the stage for pre-war philosophies to sweep the larger field of depersonalizational therapy, creating a fertile ground for the current period of scholarship.
