This wasn’t uncommon in pre-digital academia. The number of times I was baselessly accused of plagiarism was ridiculous. For years. Eventually, I decided to start plagiarizing. If I had to fight my professors every other paper, regardless, I might as well do it, right? Papers were quicker to write, objectively worse, and usually accepted without issue. I’m still pissed off.

Are you some kind of minority/disadvantaged person? If so, I bet the real issue was that you were triggering their “bigotry of low expectations” by writing well enough that they just assumed you must have been cheating.

Depends on who you’d ask, but I don’t believe that was it. No, it was just spontaneous tone shifts as I moved from a topic I didn’t care about to one that I did.
