Some people here like to pretend that they're psychologists and they know about psychology.

Then there's others that actually learn enough about people through their posting habits that they know when that person isn't actually the one writing what they're posting.

I've probably only scratched the surface of the amount of things Second has posted that he lifted directly off of other people and passed off as his own, but sometimes when the mood strikes, Second posts something that rings all the bells and I've got a few minutes to look into it I'll find it and add it to this thread. It's actually very easy to do. Even when Second makes just the tiniest bit of effort to change a few things up it's not hard to find where he's lifting the material from.

Most of the time I completely ignore whatever he's posting, so a lot of it is going to get missed. If he didn't keep quote-replying me and then posting bullshit not even related to what he quoted, I probably wouldn't catch him doing it all the time.

I did not know that, but let's just say it comes as no surprise.

We're living in a world of "who you know" and "what boxes you tick off" these days.

Being smarter than the average bear can lead to some humorous things like catching fakers and cheaters faking and cheating to an audience of half a dozen, but IRL these days I'm usually the dumbest guy in the room as far as anyone else knows.

I really don't even blame her for doing it. As a black woman, she's been told all her life by Democrats that the entire world is out to get her, when in reality the system is so afraid to even look into a black woman's work or make any accusations that she plagiarized other people's work that she knew she'd never get caught doing it.

If it weren't for her antisemitism at the wrong time, she would have gotten away with it for the rest of her life too.

Let's not even mention the fact that her last name is Gay and she looks like your stereotypical middle-aged lesbian.

Hell... Even in a much happier alternate universe without diversity quotas dumbing down the workforce at every level, there's a pretty damn good chance she wasn't going to get caught.

It's always been easy for liars, cheaters and thieves to lie, cheat and steal. The digital age just made it all so much easier and lowered the barrier to entry by so much.

If there isn't a system set in place where any papers that "academics" write are vetted at these universities, and apparently there isn't, I'm sure that she's the RULE. Not the exception to it.

But this is our modern culture. She stepped out of line, and now she's going to get cancelled.

That's the rub about "equality". Once things are actually equal, you can't keep pushing for even more equality. All bets are off now. You don't get to keep your cushy, prestigious job that you lied, cheated and stole to obtain when you get caught lying, stealing and cheating to obtain it just because you've got a race/sex/sexuality card or three to play. Especially when you piss off the Jews who (spoiler alert) still run everything.

She'll be fine though. She should put her resume in with the Democrats to be their next press secretary. I bet she'd be a much better replacement for Jen Psaki than the current diversity hire idiot was.

Claudine Gay’s way with words

How to get away with plagiarism at Harvard

https://thespectator.com/topic/claudine-gay-way-words-dei-plagiarism/

Quote:
While Gay was still in engulfed in her Hamas/antisemitism controversy, a seemingly new story broke. Christopher Rufo and Christopher Brunet published “Is Claudine Gay a Plagiarist?” documenting instances of plagiarism in Gay’s 1998 PhD dissertation at Harvard. A day later, Aaron Sibarium writing in the Washington Free Beacon documented her plagiarism in four journal articles published between 1993 and 2017. Harvard was not caught unaware. It had a polished excuse ready and waiting — waiting because Gay had learned at least some of what was coming back in October, and Harvard had appointed a special committee to “examine” the evidence.

Like I said before... How you "get away with it" is because, by default, nobody is going to check you on it, and I'm sure Gay is FAR from the only person in high positions at the Youth Indoctrination and Wage Slave Fulfillment Centers across our country.

Quote:
The cover-up committee explained that Gay was guilty of no more than a “few instances of inadequate citation.” That could happen. In my second paragraph in this essay I paraphrased Shakespeare where he has Hamlet pondering whether “to be or not to be,” by taking arms against a sea of troubles. I assumed anyone reading a Spectator article would catch it and a citation would have been ridiculously pedantic. Was that Gay’s situation?

Not hardly. Gay made a practice of lifting whole paragraphs and changing up a few words or phrases. Where the source she has copied has a mid-paragraph phrase “which is one description of bias,” Gay amends it to “which is one way to think about bias.” In another case, the source paragraph refers to “the torture and assassination of a black worker, Robson Silveira da Luz” which Gay rewrites as the “beating death of black worker, Robson Silveira da Luz.” The importance of these tiny changes is that show that, proof positive, Gay was not just leaving out citations to her sources but actively modifying the content.

What, you may well ask, is the point of making such tiny changes or, as she does elsewhere, rearranging the order of some phrases? The point I assume is to disguise the theft — to make it a little harder for a computer or a reader somewhat familiar with the material to recognize that the words have been twice-born.

Also, I’ve been involved with investigations of numerous cases of plagiarism over my career and I’m familiar with the pattern. Plagiarists often engage in such slight modification of the texts they steal. This must be partly a psychological matter: a way the plagiarist can tell herself that she didn’t “really” plagiarize because she changed things around.

Right. This is still EXCEEDINGLY EASY to spot and catch people in the act, even when they try to change bits and pieces and make it "their own".

Granted, I had no trouble finding the article that Second first plagiarized when I started this thread because I'd read the same damn thing from Krugman only a few days prior to him changing a few things and posting it as his own thoughts in the Cinema board, but that hardly matters.

Unless somebody took the time and effort to actually dumb down the entire article they're writing to the point that they should have just wrote their own thoughts down instead of stealing it, it's very easy to find when somebody stole somebody else's work thanks to the internet.

It should be assumed that somebody is changing text when they're stealing content. You're never going to catch a cheater by searching for entire paragraphs.

Just add this to the many, many problems that colleges in America have right now. The only way that half these diversity hires can even get the positions they have is to cheat and steal, and it's made exceedingly easy for them since it's made very clear to them that because of the boxes they check off they can do no w

6ixStringJack always does the same two things: accuse Krugman, the Nobel Prize winner in economics, of being stupid compared to genius Trump and plagiarism. 6ix is a Trumptard, which is synonymous with "an asshole". There are approximately 85 million Trumptards in America, which is why America has an excess of assholes problem. It is not only Trumptards' political opinions that mark them. It is also their work life, home life, investment decisions, psychiatric disorders, obesity, drunkenness, etc. -- their whole gambet of life marks them as assholes.

Here is the whole Opinion | Donald Trump Is Running Against Dystopian Fantasies

President Biden recently went to New York to appear on “Late Night With Seth Myers.” On the show he was the same guy whom those of us who’ve spoken with him have seen: not a spring chicken, obviously, but lucid, well informed and moderately funny. The contrast couldn’t be greater with Donald Trump, whose ranting has become increasingly incoherent; after mixing up Nikki Haley and Nancy Pelosi a few weeks back, he has now once again appeared to confuse Biden with Barack Obama.

But not to worry: Trump recently assured an audience, “There’s no cognitive problem. If there was, I’d know about it.”

Oh.

Republicans aren’t going to acknowledge either Biden’s lucidity or Trump’s increasingly more noticeable lack thereof. But the reaction to the “Late Night” appearance that I found most revealing wasn’t about presidential age; it was about what happened next. Biden and Myers went for ice cream after the show, and Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama fired off a post on social media hoping Biden enjoyed his ice cream “while the rest of the city is afraid of crime and migrants.”

Reporters and readers were quick to point out that according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2021 Alabama had a homicide rate more than three times as high as that of New York State, and, as Bloomberg’s Justin Fox notes, New York City is among the safest big cities in America. Tuberville has become known for getting crossed up on the issues, but his comment illustrated two larger aspects of our politics.

First, there’s a striking double standard in the ways politicians are allowed to talk about different regions of America. Voters from rural states often complain about not getting enough respect, but can you imagine the reaction if, say, the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, were to describe Alabama — which in 2021 had an extraordinarily high rate of firearm mortality — as a place where everyone runs around shooting one another and themselves?

Second, and more important, I’m always struck by the extent to which today’s right-wing politics is driven by a grim, dystopian image of America, especially American cities, that just isn’t grounded in reality.

A lot of this seems to reflect perceptions that congealed long ago and haven’t been updated to reflect the ways in which urban America has changed for the better. New York really was a dangerous place a few decades back: There were 2,262 murders in 1990. Last year, however, with the pandemic-era bump in crime rapidly receding, there were only 391 — still too many — and early indications are that violent crime is continuing to fall.

Nationally, violent crime, at least according to the F.B.I., is approaching a 50-year low.

Those are official statistics, but what about personal experience? I remember New York in the bad old days, and it’s nothing like that now. Polling on crime is remarkable, especially when broken down by partisan affiliation: According to Gallup, 78 percent of Republicans say that crime is

Trump is a fat, ill-tempered old man who feels no limit on his power and strikes fear in his subordinates.

• Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Trump had the understanding of “a fifth- or sixth-grader,” according to accounts of Woodward’s book that were published by The Washington Post. The comments came after a National Security Council meeting on Jan. 19 in which Trump questioned why the government was using resources to maintain a U.S. military presence on the Korean Peninsula. Mattis told Trump that presence was necessary “in order to prevent World War III.”

• White House chief of staff John Kelly called Trump “an idiot” and said he thought the president was “unhinged,” The Post also reported. NBC News first reported in May that Kelly had referred to the president as an idiot multiple times, in addition to making several remarks “insulting the president’s intelligence and casting himself as the savior of the country.” Kelly has denied that he ever called Trump an idiot.

• Omarosa Manigault Newman, who was the highest-ranking African-American staffer in the West Wing, claimed in a book published earlier this summer that Trump is a “racist, misogynist and bigot.” In her book, “Unhinged,” Manigault Newman said she witnessed Trump use racial epithets while describing presidential counselor Kellyanne Conway’s husband, George Conway, who is half Filipino.

• Earlier this year, Michael Wolff detailed in his book “Fire and Fury” that a number of individuals in the Trump administration insulted the president’s intelligence. Both Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and former chief of staff Reince Priebus called Trump an “idiot,” Wolff wrote. Former economic adviser Gary Cohn said Trump was “dumb as shit,” and former national security adviser H.R. McMaster said the president was a “dope,” according to the book.

• Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon said in November 2017 that Trump was “like an 11-year-old child,” according to Vanity Fair. He also said that Trump had “lost his step.” Bannon had left the White House in August 2017.

• Former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson in July 2017 called Trump a “moron,” NBC News reported. The comments came after Tillerson had a meeting at the Pentagon with members of the White House national security team and Cabinet officials.

• At a dinner in July 2017, McMaster mocked Trump, also calling him an “idiot,” BuzzFeed News reported. At the dinner, which was with Oracle CEO Safra Catz, McMaster also said Trump was a “dope” with the intelligence of a “kindergartner,” according to that report.

6ix, this thread is all about YOU. Your antics have gone on and on since Sunday, June 25, 2006. Your first sentence was "Before I start, I know that I may make more than a few enemies with this post." Did it ever dawn on you or any other Trumptard, including Trump, to shove your opinions? 6ix's short and obnoxious recent opinion: "Fuck Ukraine."

6ix, you are Trumptard. The Trumptards I know in Texas are bitter that American society does not reward them highly, but society does reward them roughly in proportion to what Trumptards deserve. For example of a Trumptard getting what he deserves, 6ix’s health took a steep decline because of alcoholism. He even lost his teeth. But once he stopped drinking, which he claimed was easy, his health improved. If only he had decided sooner, he could have kept his teeth. Now he has dentures. As for the rest of America’s Trumptards, they are still in the stage that 6ix lived with before he stopped drinking and they are suffering for the foolish way they live. Trump suffers the same because of what he does. He goes through life as if drunk on power, sex, and money. Nothing can get him off his path of self-destruction, much like 6ix’s drinking years, nothing other than himself deciding to behave better.
