Ok, someone on twitter claims to have run the essay through turnitin.com, and it came up as 100% match to an essay submitted by a USC(University of Southern California) student shortly before the NYT published it. You need to be a student, instructor, or teachers assistant in a current class to even use turnitin.com, so verifying this isn't possible unless you are a college student in a class that uses turnitin.com to prevent plagiarism.
So, any college students here with access to turnitin to verify this info?
Either put effort into your threads (we have one already, faggot; post there) or fuck off.
I know some people in higher education. I’ve sent out e-mails asking if they have access and could throw me a login to check on this. Everyone else should do the same.
