All universities need to collaborate and be their own journals and cut the parasite out completely.

Journals provide neither the source material, not technical or administrative expertise, nor value for dollar.

Its a racket.

finally!

as a researcher I hate these companies so much... if it weren't for sci-hub my work wouldn't happen

we researcher provide the work, and the peer-review, and the editing, everything for free, and then these sharks such as elsevier steal it all and put it behind a paywall

it's sickening

Can we just make knowledge free already

There’s plenty of money for everyone if we take it from those billionaire psychopaths

Fuck Elsevier!

The era that these companies evolved in has been left far behind. The best you can say about them is that they keep knowledge of modern research from spreading. They may be the last refuge of intellectual colonialism.
