Cambridge professor Jason Arday recently resigned in disgrace, under a cloud of numerous plagiarism accusations. He’s down & out forever, right? I thought so, but in this discussion today between Bret Weinstein and Peter Boghossian, the former suggested a trump card that Arday could still play and instantly become a hero … at least to those of us who believe in truth. Hint: If you want to skip ahead to the big reveal, advance the video to about 17 minutes in.
Even if he were to do that, it doesn’t change that Cambridge and others have just been skinsuited, and everyone should be treating them as the joke that they are.
But that’s Bret Weinstein’s point. If Arday were to admit that everything he did was a ruse to out the inauthenticity of Cambridge and its professors, then he would do society a huge service.
And there’s a world full of Karens who’d say they believe him.
“If #Arday were to admit that everything he did was a ruse to out the inauthenticity of Cambridge and its professors…”
…then he’d still be a lying grifter, just shifting his grift to a different set of suckers.
Mr. Weinstein’s larger point is ‘don’t be a sucker.’ We’ve known for 15 years that Cambridge and the Ivy League etc. were solid BS from top to bottom, and there they are, still going along. Nothing done.
Are we all so desperate for validation that we’d accept the likes of #Arday as a champion of the Right? I think some people are, and that’s not good.
