 "As punishment for American academic

@nathancofnas

being the first to report publicly that Jason Arday’s DEI research was full of plagiarism, Ghent University, where he is a researcher, announced he is being investigated. The person who announced the investigation is the trans rector. He was recently forced to admit that a speech he gave at the university was written with AI and included fake quotes."

 "At this point, everyone kind of knows that any black individual of genuine competence and intellectual acuity will recognize and forthrightly expose the fraudulence in Arday’s narrative and the deeper intellectual bankruptcy of DEI itself. So this entire episode has inadvertently become a natural public litmus test of real ability because it is precisely those who are capable who stand to suffer most from the racial quotas that DEI enforces. It's uncomfortable to say so but it's true."

I haven't done much with the Arday story, but it's one more example of a black academic building their entire persona on lies and bad research and eventually getting exposed. It can't have anything to do with the ASPL venerating people for skin color or minority rather than competence.
