Instead it was the story du jour for weeks and he was hounded, and now he isn’t here any more

Meanwhile how many white academics are actual criminals? How many white guys have used their status in academia to ruin lives? To victimise? How much academic fraud actually happens that we don’t make a big deal out of? Even when academic fraud does get attention, it doesn’t get this amount of scrutiny.

And it is because he had the temerity to use his lies to “pollute” a symbol of whiteness with his blackness, and that was his actual crime. Being black and thinking he bad a right to be at Cambridge. The lies were secondary.

Fuck the press, fuck academia, and fuck social media

    He resigned in disgrace and then killed himself. The “centrist” media got their way, theh got rid of the black man. But that wasn’t enough, they have to make sure not only is this man wiped from their cultural signifier, no new black man should be able to defile it.

    Not only did they do this disgusting thing, they’re gonna take a fucking victory lap.
