This is a fallacy: "If no one agrees to do performative research, the problem will be solved."

It is like saying, if everyone stops subscribing to OnlyFans or liking spicy pics on Instagram, it will go away.

There will always be sycophants willing to do "performative research" or ... other things.

"Performative research" sounds far more NSFW than it has any right to in the context you've placed it.

If everyone stops subscribing to OnlyFans, why will OnlyFans exist?
