“The British press bullied a vulnerable person to death, and they had fun doing it.”— Laurie Penny cuts straight to the chase.

In the wake of Arday's death, Nathan Cofnas (who led the X mob against him) states his motivation. Beyond whistleblowing, he states that after a 'revolution' removes professors like Arday, it will open opportunities for him to become 'head of the department of eugenics and race science at Harvard'.

From divvy to dinlo: index of insults aims to record Britain’s diverse dialects
Academics from the University of Sheffield hope to create a ‘vivid, honest record’ of swearwords and other slights to stop them dying out
An idiot wandering the British Isles is sure to be greeted with a colourful volley of insults, each a signifier of the place in which he finds himself: “divvy” in Merseyside, “pillock” in Leeds or “dinlo” in Portsmouth.
