The relentless media frenzy turned #JasonArday into a #scapegoat, while #SimonLevy's victims barely registered. When will journalists acknowledge that a black man's alleged plagiarism doesn't eclipse the societal ills that truly endanger lives? #MediaBias #Racism

May all those who suffer prejudice, discrimination, hatred, or harmful intent know that those people are wrong. Therefore, you are protected from its effects in that knowledge. Energy is precious. Creation is joy; destruction agony. So use that energy to create.

On the slim off chance you may have missed this excellent strip out of what Professor #JasonArday endured in the UK. Truly powerful, informative work. 🙏

"..onslaught against #JasonArday was not inevitable. It became possible because, at every stage of the pursuit, people & institutions — police, universities, media, & commentariat — chose to ignore Arday’s warnings, legitimise the frame & amplify a reality imposed by the proponents of #racescience."

Whilst this clip undoubtedly relates to UK & international media & the many dark others hunt for the scalp of Professor #JasonArday I'll wager there's not one transgender person alive in #UK right now who doesn't empathise with these words. Substitute 'race science' with #GenderCritical - it burns.

Rather than a media pile-on, this was predatory propaganda. 

Fighting propaganda is not simply a matter of determining whether each 

individual claim is true or false. It is first and foremost a struggle over 

who has the power to define reality. 

That is what framing does: it places certain perspectives at the centre, 

relegates others to the margins, and determines what becomes visible, 

sayable and relevant.

That authority — that power — is precisely what is at stake. 

**Race science, a belief system fundamentally untethered from reality, 

needs to be received as science. Its proponents crave legitimacy 

because their very existence depends on it. Without recognition from 

journalists, universities and the public, they remain what they are: 

marginal and extremist. 

With it, they acquire the authority to police the boundaries of knowledge

 — to decide what counts as evidence, what constitutes merit, 

whose scholarship warrants investigation and whose testimony can be 

dismissed as mere grievance.

2/3 Harris is on record acknowledging Arday’s complaints of harassment and that he had cited a previous history of harassment. The hunt for Professor #JasonArday began quietly, three years earlier, couched in the civilised codes of scholarly society: a professor who was merely asking questions.

"It’s also important to centre the story here. From #JasonArday’s standpoint, and by LJMU’s own standards, there was no intent to commit academic fraud. Arday, for his part, consistently described what was happening to him as racist and ableist harassment, not legitimate academic debate." 1/3
