I honestly don't know what you're getting at here.
What seems anti-intellectual to me is the implicit claim among the sources you keep linking to that if academic papers don't match up with someone's childish preconceived notions, then they must be vacuous nonsense.
The philosophy and sociology of science are rich and complex subjects, and the meaning and purpose of the "scientific method" has been a perennial topic of discussion. Beyond that I don't have anything to say, because I don't know anything about the context of that particular paper.
