Was he her former PhD dissertation director or on her committee? Just because he wasn't teaching her anymore does not make this okay. And the racist codename. Just vile. Also just gross for the Crimson to publish the name of a harassment survivor without her consent.
The Harvard Crimson has ID'ed and published the name of a well-known economist who was the subject of emails between Larry Summers and Epstein.
Born in China, she did her B.A. – Ph.D. at Harvard.
The code name that Summers and Epstein used in their emails about her was "peril." What a vile pig.

Women's problem is not meeting the same standards as men. We do that every day, and often exceed expectations.
But if you're expected to fuck Larry Summers to get ahead, it's no surprise that women might fall behind men, who are not expected to do this.

7/🧵 The loudest voices aren't the most representative. Every generation has extremists, but social media amplifies fringe movements beyond their size. A handful of young white nationalists create viral moments that crowd out broader trends. We mistake the exception for the rule.

More grossness. How can someone still say in 2025 that #MeToo was kind of like driving gay men out of the workplace, and she was being 'courageous' by 'standing up'?

📍Senator Fetterman had a VFIB—the leading cause of cardiac arrest—he almost died if not for his implanted defibrillator, which can cost $34,000 to over $51,000. Days ago, he also just voted with GOP to gut health insurance tax credits for millions. Hope he has a change of heart.

I want to argue with every sentence of the fawning introduction to this interview but I shan’t - other than to say some people are well-acquainted with “isolated and arrogant” and to point out that the University of Austin (ahem) has found its niche as a home for scoundrels.

Surprise! The self-described "proud transphobe" turns out to be a staunch defender of pedophiles.
(Of course not a surprise in the least, every "proud transphobe" is inevitably also a staunch defender of pedophilia.)
