Every single member of the aristocracy and political leaders of both the Confederacy and apartheid South Africa should have been very publicly executed. And said executions celebrated with annual drinking holidays. We’d be in a much better spot globally
And Nazi Germany.
And the Zionists. Still time for them.
Always room in the calender for public holidays!
Truth, we did at least have the Nuremberg trials for them but more should’ve hanged
Unfortunately, operation paperclip & condor ensured that the worst were assisted to escape either to become scientists for the US or to South America to form death squads
Maybe, but didn’t he actually plagiarize a lot of his work?
His last ditch claim was that it wasn’t plagiarism, it was autistic mimicry, which is an insult to autistic individuals everywhere.
Looks like a conman who couldn’t handle reality catching up with him.
That’s the thing that perplexes me - I’ve not been following this closely but it sounds like he was a compulsive liar and grifter whose actions caught up with him. Doesn’t seem like someone to rally behind.
He was investingated for plagiarism by Liverpool University, where the degree in question was from, and they found his work flawed in attributions and references, but not full on plagiarism.
The current media storm came from a self a owed race realist who says “in a meritocracy there’d be no black people at university” stirring it up repeating the claims he was found innocent of until he quit his job and killed himself.
Not to say he’s blameless, the errors and failings in attribution and referencing are not the be all and end all, but a lot of the other claims about things he made up - raising money for charity, running the marathons - this article fact checks and comes down on more likely true, or closer to true than not.
We should be able to deal with plagirism without hounding (only black) plagarists until they commit suicide.
I’m not pro-hounding.
But you said you’ve not been following closely but you’re closely regurgitating the far right propaganda character assassination.
Do better FFS
Based on the other comments here it’s messy, which was my takeaway. My comment was more about making him a figure to rally behind.
Not appreciating the insinuation I’m lying though, maybe I should go off myself as well, eh?
Looks like a conman who couldn’t handle reality catching up with him.
So like Trump, and probably Musk too?
Theyre rather too shameless

He was also investigated at Cambridge, but they concluded it was racially motivated so didn’t complete the process, despite concerns of his colleagues and students.
Times Higher Education was preparing a major investigative story into his fabrication of medical study subjects and plagiarism of his students (allegedly with 68-pages worth of copied material including typos intact), but Arday hit them with a SLAPP action via the high-end law firm Carter-Ruck last autumn and they spiked the story.
There are currently three investigations ongoing, at Jesus College, Cambridge University and Queens University Belfast, and calls for an investigation into the first investigation at Cambridge.
In short, it’s a whole big mess, and it may take months or years to straighten out.
It is a total cluster fuck.
And siccing Carter-Fuck on TES isn’t a good look.
That it became a mainstream media circus focused on sensationalism made it all harder to dig to the truth.
Hopefully people (or at least the left and left adjacent folk) can approach it as a non-partisan issue.
So all this shit stirred from substack. Why fuck substack didn’t remove such a racist article from the beginning? I don’t care about how much internet has “useful” to human kind. Its just a tool mass manipulation and disinformation without any regulation.
Substack has had a Nazi problem since it’s inception and refuses to deal with it, citing “freedom of speech”
