    There are many different truth seeking mechanisms. Data and logic and the scientific method are typical white male oppressor mechanisms. The mystical truths of women of color are a step beyond, and I don't feel personally able to understand them or pronounce any judgment of them.

    Education is extremely important.

      No doubt. Witchcraft and Voodoo are esoteric black arts.

        If you are writing code you can plagiarize as much as you want, nobody cares.

            Examples in the thread. When 40% of your publications have questionable attributions...

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              I'm sorry, that's not a minor problem that's absolute fucking plagiarism.

                    National Association of Scholars pops up on my youtube feed occasionally. They are heterodox thinkers who don't need no stinking overton windows.

                            A cis white male at her level would have difficulty being a professional academic.

                              The Crimson

                              “As members of the Harvard Corporation, we today reaffirm our support for President Gay’s continued leadership of Harvard University,” the board wrote in a University-wide statement on Tuesday. “In this tumultuous and difficult time, we unanimously stand in support of President Gay.”

                              Oh...

                              In the statement, the Corporation revealed that it learned about the plagiarism allegations against Gay in late October. The board’s concerns also call into question the presidential search committee’s vetting process for the search that ended in Gay’s selection less than one year ago.

                              The concerns raised by Harvard’s highest governing body about the plagiarism allegations against Gay mark a head-spinning twist in the controversy surrounding Gay’s tumultuous first semester as president.

                              While some speculated the Corporation might oust Gay over her response to the Israel-Hamas war, the statement on Tuesday suggests the academic dishonesty allegations might prove more perilous to the future of Gay’s presidency.

                              They knew about it two months ago.

                                  Imagine the epic joy on the board when they found a black woman named Gay!

                                  They will never let her go.
