"University of Tasmania academic Vadim Kamenetsky under investigation for criticising the institution on Facebook". I posted this in a comment elsewhere but it is juicy enough to deserve its own post. This is quite astounding, and has huge implications for academic and personal freedom. (archive.ph)

Sorry, this was meant to be posted when this originally went up, but my computer is on its last legs (and the posting of the comment on the site played up, for some "internal" reason)...

As I said elsewhere: This story was so inconvenient that the ABC later suppressed it on Twitter AND Facebook. That's how bad this has gotten...

Zero remaining other accessible online local (MSM) news coverage of it. Zero. Only physical print.

And the local subs ban you from posting or directly linking to it.

And then there's this: https://archive.ph/F3RfJ (UTAS splashes out in PR blitz as staff, students paint picture of low morale)

"The University of Tasmania has gone on a charm offensive, splashing out on full-page newspaper advertisements, collaborations with an Australian influencer, and sponsored posts on social media."

Which explains a lot of what I experienced on Reddit today, and Facebook previously, when bringing this shit up.

And finally, this: https://archive.ph/MJgIM

Which caused such a kerfuffle when I posted it in the local sub, today (a month late, for various reasons. Including waiting to see whether someone else might post it first. Now I know why they hadn't, or, at least, why those posts were "gone"...), that it eventually turned into a verbal slanging match, where these people, these "staff members" and "academics" went full ad hominem, defamed me as much as possible, tried to dox me, and are now trying to get me banned from "their" sub for being "aggressive in response", lol...

Watch your backs, guys. If this can happen in fucking Tasmania, at the literal ends of the earth, with a population of just over half a mill, and in a subreddit of like, 5000 "members" (note that a lot of the ones attacking me were not sub members, which gives even more indication of who they probably really were/worked for), then it can happen fucking anywhere...

Jesus fucking christ. Never go full retard. Uh, Reddit. Yeah, I mean "full Reddit". Totally...
