No Larry Summers anymore, but the scumbag Tony Blair? The frontman for Jared Kushner's plan to turn Gaza into resort development. He should be in The Hague charged with war crimes, not 'teaching' Harvard students. Harvard is so pitiful.
Larry Summers’s co-teacher at Harvard:
“We will miss his insights and his wisdom”
Student:
“NO WE WON’T”
dude pretends he doesn’t hear, then intros Tony Blair lmao

I am waiting for Chris Cutrone to write a piece in Compact explaining why Trump should take Venezuela just like Greenland, then defending it further on Doug Lain's Diet Soap podcast.

We laugh at this shit -- I mean, how can you not? -- but it's serious: these guys want to infuse reactionary thinking into AI and then infuse AI into every nook & cranny of American life. They can't win the argument so they are trying to blunt-force their views onto us with money & power.

This is very bad. Although entirely predictable. Once more the humanities are being cut back to prop up STEM and, increasingly, AI investment (including at the expense of bench science). In the past, cuts to humanities were promoted on two separate logic streams that do not hold true: /1
Dean at U of Chicago: “She also expressed concerns that the administration might be asking the Arts & Humanities Division to cut back to compensate for other divisions’ financial challenges, asking whether ‘our entire unit [is] being used to float other units facing cuts.”

Always trace the money. If a publication is funded by right-wing billionaires, you know something is wrong, even if it publishes so-called leftist authors. The goal is ideological obfuscation. Just take the case of Gaza.

It's absurdly expensive to purchase a degree from vakıf universities (aka diploma mills). May they shut down, although many deserving academics have unfortunately found themselves slaves of the system. Shut them down, establish in their place state unis
