While thousands of Argentine scientists struggle to sustain projects relevant to health, technology, and education amid a tight budget, the National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET) allocates public resources to completely absurd research.
One of the most striking cases is that of the "researcher" Facundo Nazareno Saxe, who refers to himself on social media as "fakunda ex-miss cordillera, marica-putx, CONICET researcher, agent of chaos, polyamorous."
Saxe, who is also a professor at the Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences at the National University of La Plata (UNLP), has built his academic career around gender studies, queer theory, and representations of "sexual dissidence," topics that are always present in his "research."

Among his most widely circulated controversial works are titles such as "El pensamiento marica," "El cuerpo marica," "Lecturas monstruo: Género y disidencia sexual en la cultura contemporánea," and "Disidencias sexuales. Un sistema geoplanetario de disturbios sexo-subversivos-anales-contra-vitales."
This individual has also produced delirious reports such as the one titled: "el ano dilatado de Batman" and "las aventuras sadomasoquistas del mendigo chupapija."
