Made the Academics For Academic Freedom banned list. Boom! Dublin Universities AFAF

“Ancient wisdom encourages us to ask questions, challenge ideas and enable free thought, but is this happening?” Nope. The irony of being cancelled just over a month after this was published... University College Dublin Academics For Academic Freedom Breaking Point


‘Anti-racism’ is not a skill, it is an ideology, & a highly contested one at that. To paraphrase David Decosimo: ‘Shall an ideology be given official institutional standing at Dublin City University (& Irish HEIs generally)?’ x.com/timcrowley_/st…


Hey James Lawless, how about attracting academics like Alex Byrne to Ireland, to demonstrate your commitment to free ideas? Oh, but how would that fit with government’s & HEA’s endorsement of Athena SWAN, & its demand that academics in Ireland promote gender ideology? Freedom, eh?






On my first day at BU, a colleague took me to lunch & said: “Do you know what the real miracle of your hire is? You’re a white male. Do you know how much better than every other candidate you have to be to get hired here as a white man?" I couldn't believe he'd said it out loud.
