Pathetic. Wikipedia is never an acceptable academic reference. And then to plagiarize it.

All this shite will do is make it ok to plagiarize in college. Much better chance of that than for them to hammer all these fake DEI pieces of shite.

She’s too busy planning her next child, this “father” will be out on probation as well as being a homeless bicycle thief. Probably won’t have an opinion till CNN tells her one.

It's worse than that. He used the text from Wikipedia and then included all the citations from that Wikipedia page and passed it off as hid own thoughts on the course material.

This is what happens when you allow affirmative action to dictate who is accepted into college

It's almost as if many, if not all of these DEI folks are grifters not smart enough to do their own work.

“With how hard his life was facing daily systemic racism by the patriarchal and white forefathers causing unimaginable pain and strife, we should just let this slide. He’s been through enough “

They never expected to succeed on the level that they would face any real scrutiny.

Follow up. My daughter’s high school uses plagiarism detection websites for homework. How are doctoral theses not going through these?
