Zitat von: Habra am Gestern um 09:34:56Auch ein Schweizer  Medium berichtet über den Fall, allerdings nicht reißerisch, sondern einigermaßen neutral und deutet auch einen Streisandeffekt an:
Danke. Der Artikel ist gut. Er wirft einen Blick auf verschiedene Aspekte im Fall Arday ohne in eine aktivistische "Haltung" zu verfallen.

Um es nochmal in Erinnerung zu rufen: Der konservative Daily Telegraph und der progressive Guardian waren die ersten großen britischen Medien, die Jason Ardays Erzählungen kritisch hinterfragt haben. Ohne sie wäre Nathan Cofnas Substack-Artikel wahrscheinlich in den Weiten des Internets verschwunden und nur gewissen rechten Kreisen zirkuliert worden.

Karlach: What a pesthole! Can't wait to clear this place out.
Minsc: There will be much trading of threats and insults, no doubt. But Minsc will be ready when it is time for boot to meet butt.
Karlach: You and me both, pal.

Zitat von: Peiresc am Gestern um 10:15:11... Fallgeschichten anderer Wissenschaftler mit ähnlichen Plagiatsgeschichten ...
Nur geht es hier nicht nur um die Plagiatsvorwürfe.
Aktueller Stand dürfte ja sein, dass er einen Großteil seiner Lebensgeschichte erfunden hat.

Die laut brüllenden Ränder (beider Seiten) versuche ich auszublenden. Denen geht es ohnehin nicht um
den Fall selbst, sondern nur um die Rechtfertigung ihrer Ideologie.

No engagement with the arrant lies, the massive plagiarism, the airy public addresses. Kendi thinks all of that is okay if you're Black (and have dreadlocks) and that Arday was still a legitimate academic seized upon because of his color.

Kendi thinks Blackness exempts one from amassing data, drawing connections, and presenting novel insights. You're the real thing in just showing racism exists, despite that this is a rote exercise. We don't have to be actually smart, and in fact shouldn't (too "Western"). We are authentic in eternally "contesting."

That take is deep if you (have dreadlocks and) changed your name to Kendi.
Note that he seems not to have worked out at the Atlantic, and publishes this soapbox performance art somewhere you're a little surprised a public "intellectual" of his status would choose.

I wish Arday were alive. But this take on Arday as lynched is performance art. American academia should hesitate to embrace it.

The death of Jason Arday hit so close to home that I had no words yesterday. But I woke up with words.

To be a prominent antiracist Black scholar is to know you are a target, almost totally surrounded by resentments. You know that at any point, the attacks can come like a lynch mob.

And if you die from all the attacks, the media still calls the attacks on you "accusations" to wash their hands of the blood. Your lynchers announce your death as if they had no role in your lynching.
