Professor Jason Arday’s death and more: Letters – Latest News
Arday classes
I’m past challenged that on this day and age of AI strategies to vet people, we repeatedly enable people to amp up their résumes and outright inform falsehoods about their lives (“Plagued UK prof, 41, dead,” Aug. 15).
Is no one vetting work the old style method anymore? Jason Arday needed mental help, not the celebratory acceptance that resulted in obvious untenable humiliation. We need to study from this whereas mourning an pointless loss of life.

UESers’ trash-talk
The left-leaning Upper East Side voted overwhelmingly for this mayor, so why not simply benefit from the rubbish bins that you simply move by whereas in search of a nonexistent parking space (“Toss ugly trash-can plan, says UES big,” Aug. 16)?
Better but, give up your costly car and take a trip on the “free” bus he promised you. You reap what you sow.

Facing down hate
I used to be touched with Michele Anenberg-Poma’s steadfast delight in her Jewish identification and appalled on the Central Synagogue assault, which is a painful reminder of the antisemitic milieu that continues to saturate our great metropolis, notably below Mayor Mamdani (“Jews’ spirit unbroken,” Aug. 17).
The nearly cliched characterization that the perpetrator has mental points doesn’t have the credibility it as soon as had, earlier than the unabated hate for the Jewish population sadly pervaded our once-friendly tradition.

Animal assault
It’s pitiful that The Post is now blaming animals and calling them the downfall of the reasonably priced housing market (“Greens Halt Housing,” Robert Verbruggen, PostOpinion, Aug. 15).
Animals aren’t the enemy and disgrace on you for inciting useless hatred towards them.
Not everyone seems to be leaping for pleasure over reasonably priced housing, which brings with it its own issues (which you additionally find out about). There are tons of of Superfund websites everywhere in the nation. How about cleansing them up for human use? Or perhaps tighten up rental legal guidelines.
Why do we’ve to demolish the setting in order that builders can get wealthy?

Contagious bigotry
Carmella Charrington proves the speculation that stupidity doesn’t discriminate between colour, race or political occasion (“ ‘Zionists’ stole my house: pol,” Aug. 19).
Her thirst to be reelected so she will undoubtedly proceed to barely serve her constituents simply proves that ignorance is contagious. The mayor, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Hasan Piker: Their short stardom of hate and ignorance will finish. We will all cheer and relegate them to the ash heap of historical past.

Money-hungry AGs
The solely distinction between the quartet of state attorneys basic pursuing a lawsuit in opposition to Meta and those bringing infinite lawsuits within the non-public sector is that AGs have the ability of the state behind them (“Shaking Down Meta,” Editorial, Aug. 18).
I’m sure there are different points within their states that require their consideration, similar to Tish James ignoring what’s happening with the West Harlem Development Corp. It’s by no means concerning the people they had been elected to guard, it’s about filling their pockets.
