"Summers analyzes the situation in classic economic terms, comparing the marginal cost (i.e., spending money on gifts) with the marginal benefit (i.e., receiving sex) to maximize profit or utility. You don’t have to be a former Treasury Secretary to know that dating is all about the ROI.Epstein’s response to Summers’s account of his “courtship” is to offer praise. “No whining showed strentgh (sic)” Epstein wrote. (Summers was totally whining.)"
Larry Summers is a misogynist, of course, but he's also a racist, gladly siding with neo-Nazi Bo Winegard (now one of Emil Kirkgaard's employees) when Winegard was whining in Quillette.
Meanwhile, Bryan Pesta has lost again. Like Bo Winegard, Pesta works for Emil Kirkgaard as discussed in the HOPE not Hate exposé:
A diagram shown to our undercover reporter shows that the (Human Diversity Foundation) research team has approximately 10 members. The meeting our infiltrator attended had 11 writers from the UK, the US, and Europe, including Kirkegaard. At least one contributor (Meng Hu at the University of Hong Kong) was not present. Several of the team are known in the world of scientific racism, and had contributed to Aporia or had in the past been funded by Pioneer. Chief among them is Bryan Pesta, who between 2019 and 2022 received Pioneer money and was dismissed from his academic position at Cleveland State University in February 2022 for misusing genetic data in his research.
Cleveland State University did not violate the First Amendment rights of a professor who it fired after he published academic work exploring race and intelligence, a court ruled recently.
A three-judge panel of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the 2022 firing of Professor Bryan Pesta in a decision issued on Nov. 4.
YAY!
And finally, although it was announced in September, I just found out that New York's Attorney General is suing white nationalists Peter and Lydia Brimelow, the one-time owners of White supremacy Castle:
New York state’s Attorney General announced last Wednesday, September 3 that the office of Letitia James has filed suit against VDARE Foundation, seeking to keep its founding members from collecting or controlling any more charitable funds from the foundation and redirecting any remaining funds to other entities.
VDARE Foundation, which operated a political blog that promoted anti-immigration viewpoints, was the purchaser of the Berkeley Castle in 2020. The group’s primary controlling members have been Peter and Lydia Brimelow, who live in Berkeley Springs with their family.
The Brimelows announced last year that they had shut down VDARE and its website in response to ongoing legal and financial troubles, including actions by the New York Attorney General Letitia James to investigate the financial oversight of the group.
VDARE was originally incorporated in New York as VDARE Foundation, Inc., a New York charitable not-for-profit corporation by founder Peter Brimelow.
AG James has alleged that Peter and Lydia Brimelow have violated “the laws governing charitable not-for-profit corporations and their fiduciaries” by using VDARE Foundation funds for personal gain and have not complied with reporting and best practices for deciding the use of charitable funds under their control.
“At the time that VDARE ceased operations, it had conveyed over $1.7 million in cash and real estate assets to an out-of-state not-for-profit run by Lydia Brimelow,” the Attorney General alleged in her September 3 lawsuit filing.
In the court filing, the Attorney General asks that VDARE be dissolved as a charitable organization, that its assets be redirected to other charitable entities and that the Brimelows be barred from having any further role in deciding the use of charitable funds received by VDARE.
YES PLEASE!
Two pals of Steven Pinker, Razib Khan and Steve Sailer, have written for VDARE. In 2024, Charles Murray can be found promting Sailer's career, including his VDARE connection, at the racism-loving American Enterprise Institute.
