Jason Arday Blames Mean Racists for Noticing His Fraud

Professor Sir Simon Baron-Cohen of Cambridge U. is really angry that bad people are being insensitive to Professor Jason Arday of Cambridge U. just for becoming a full professor at Cambridge by being a conman. Don’t they realize Arday is an autistic conman?

And they don’t realise that that human being is someone’s father or a son.
In case you were wondering if Arday is as gay as Will Smith’s similar character in Six Degrees of Separation, he …
