So Harvard is keeping this guy, but Claudine Gay had to step down over ginned up plagiarism accusations and bad-faith accusations of anti-Semitism.

Got it.
Larry Summers tells @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social
he’s stepping back from all public commitments in light of his messages with Epstein, saying he is “deeply ashamed” and hopes “to rebuild trust and repair relationships.”

He will continue teaching.

See @theferocity.bsky.social 's stance on hate watching. There is enough good shit that people make to occupy allllll of our time. The Secret was a lie, but this is one way to truly manifest. The attention economy needs our willing participation. Wield that power accordingly.
Every time you hate read an article you justify its writing. It really is that simple
don't reskeet book excerpts from terrible people, even to dunk on them or to hate-read.

You give prestige magazines clicks, and you encourage them to do this crap more.

Encourage terrible people to go to What Ever Happened To?? land

Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

I refuse to believe politicians are forgetting how rancid MTG is. Sure we can have a big tent but we do not need to welcome someone like her. Please everyone get a fucking hold of yourselves.

Summers called this female Chinese economist “peril.”

“Yellow peril” was partially built on the claim that Chinese women were sexually immoral threats.

That logic fueled the Page Act of 1875, which barred Chinese women by presuming they were prostitutes, even before the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act.
Summers conferred with Epstein frequently about how to extract sexual favors from a Harvard econ grad (AB '04, PhD '09)

The grad is from China

Epstein and Summers referred to her by the codename "Peril"

Racism and sexual exploitation in one efficient package

This is how you know it’s authentic CPD data:

“Police baked their own contempt into the data, listing people’s occupations as “SCUM BAG,” “TURD,” or simply “BLACK.” Neither arrest nor conviction was necessary to make the list.”

Abolish the Senate.

It's antidemocratic, anti-Black, and classist. It exists solely because the racist founders thought the House of Representatives was TOO democratic and because the southern slavers demanded a house of Congress where they'd have outsized influence.

Get rid of it.

I got laid off, I utilized SNAP, and I was able to remain in my chosen field of profession. The program is incredibly effective in mitigating the effects of unemployment, and that’s precisely why they want to gut it.

This—agents driving around in circles and provoking the community—has gone on for hours at this point with no discernible goal other than to inflict terror.

They also just fired pepper balls at someone.
