00:00:00.000 Hi, everybody. This is Gad Saad for The Saad Truth.
00:00:03.860 Earlier this morning, I posted an article on X,
00:00:08.140 which I'd like to read for you here.
00:00:11.640 The article is titled,
00:00:13.240 Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity Yields Jason Arday.
00:00:17.940 In my 2020 book, The Parasitic Mind,
00:00:20.180 How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense,
00:00:23.440 I explained how the DI, diversity, inclusion, and equity cult,
00:00:28.100 kills everything in its wake, including the ethos of meritocracy and the pursuit of academic
00:00:34.500 excellence. I further discussed the homeostasis of victimology, whereby it becomes incumbent on
00:00:41.480 some merchants of full victimology to peddle a false narrative to ensure that they are viewed
00:00:47.400 as righteous victims in an unjust system of intersectional oppression, as per the
00:00:54.840 Jussie Smollett debacle. In September 2025, I appeared in front of the Canadian House of Commons
00:01:01.820 to reiterate that the dye cancer must be expunged from academic institutions.
00:01:08.320 In my recently released book, Suicidal Empathy, Dying to be Kind, which I'm delighted to report
00:01:13.860 debuted as an instant number one New York Times bestseller and stayed on the list for 10 consecutive
00:01:19.860 weeks, I further highlighted the astounding dangers that the DAI framework poses to the
00:01:26.080 pursuit of truth. Individual merit takes a backseat to skin color. Academic excellence
00:01:32.480 takes a backseat to gender identity. The scientific method takes a backseat to, quote,
00:01:39.160 indigenous ways of knowing. Truth takes a backseat to the elevation of marginalized voices.
00:01:46.640 And then Jason Arday walks into the room and proclaims, hold my beer. I'm a black man. I'm
00:01:54.200 autistic. I'm the product of an evil system. Shower me with my due accolades. Close quote.
00:02:01.580 It has since been alleged that his doctoral dissertation, along with many of his other
00:02:06.320 academic works, are laden with endless instances of plagiarism. His life story apparently contains
00:02:14.060 endless fabrications that would make Baron Munchhausen blush with envy. And yet his
00:02:21.180 institution, the venerable Cambridge University, has doggedly defended him, as have many leading
00:02:27.760 academics, including Simon Baron Cohen, a leading researcher on autism. Apparently it is racist and
00:02:35.840 callous to go after Arde, a noble victim of color. Empathetic people bow and curtsy when
00:02:43.980 a black, quote, thinker enters the room. Empathetic people do not accuse a black, quote, thinker
00:02:51.280 of plagiarism. He is merely engaging in the righteous word reparations that are owed him
00:02:58.060 because slavery. Empathetic people do not question a black thinker's truth. His truth is more
00:03:06.740 important than the truth. Incidentally, setting aside his alleged acts of academic fraud, the
00:03:14.360 quality of his work is grotesquely poor. Arday's case is what happens when deontological principles
00:03:21.800 are violated by cheap consequentialist concerns. Example, truth can be murdered in the noble quest
00:03:30.540 to be allies to people of color. I wish that I could say that I'm surprised by the Arday
00:03:36.260 story, but it is exactly what one should expect when all institutions have been ravaged by
00:03:43.560 parasitic ideas bathing in the warm waters of the infinity pool of suicidal empathy.
00:03:50.000 If we are going to play the tired race card, I would suggest for people to emulate the glorious
00:03:56.840 and dignified Thomas Sowell and reject the fraudulent model offered by Jason Artie and
00:04:04.600 his ilk of full merchants of oppression. Take care, everybody. Cheers.
