As it turns out, that was then, and this is now. Consent is no longer enough. The latest case in point is that of David Sabatini, said to be one of the world’s greatest scientists. His career has been derailed because a former lover has now turned on him. It is a sad story, certainly for Sabatini and maybe for the rest of us, as his cancer research is among the world’s most promising. Sabatini was forced out of MIT and his career has been downhill from there [...]

Note that this is MIT where the ADULT WOMAN and ADULT MAN have a consensual affair but when the fire died, she played the victim card and got him removed. If there is more to the background (I sincerely hope so), it is undisclosed. Now, he is besmirched, which is bad, but an apparent worse is a friend-colleague at another school gets an apparent threat/investigation, from an attempt to hire him there.
Wow!
And ... before the inevitable response, I have no idea of the exProfessor’s politics but the odds are that, being MIT & Massachusetts, LEFT is likely! Still, remember that old axiom about how becoming conservative is a logical reaction to being mugged.
I believe what she did was start a campaign against him, not so much involving her own relationship with him, but his behavior toward other women in the school. She called in some lawyers who questioned women he worked with and got them to say things that reflected poorly on his character and that information was brought to HR and the powers that be at the university. She knew that her relationship with him on its own, wasn’t enough to destroy his career, which is the revenge she wanted.
Unfortunately, he did make some questionable choices in his behavior and they helped fuel the fire she built.
There is little new here. For many years we have heard about adult college women revoking their consent after sex and accusing the men of rape. The fact that this was taken seriously and even lead to consent having to be in writing has brought us to this idiocy. Seduce the wrong woman, lose your job and career.
I have read about this case before. He sounds brilliant & he sounds like he’s a pig. BUT......if you’re an adult woman & you go to a man’s hotel room for a “meeting” you are really dumb & are not a victim. Same with the women who went to Harvey Weinstein’s hotel room to have a meeting.No person with half a brain goes to a man’s hotel room for a meeting.Bad decision making on the woman’s part. She is not a victim.
What a stupid broad....I hope somehow God makes her regret this for the the rest of her life. Unfortunately, we live in a time where everything bad that happens is a white guys fault.
Stuff like this will hasten the development of extremely life-like female substitutes which can be occasionally deployed when necessary, then cleaned and placed safely away in a secluded closet.

This fits nicely with yesterday’s story about how ALL unwanted pregnancies are the fault of men. Women are no longer willing to be held responsible for any of the decisions they make.
Here's the current reality
God's way is always better, including God's way regarding sexual behavior.
The godless Dims can't even make up their mind what the sexual boundaries are, and if you cross their ever-moving boundaries they create chaos. They want us to think it's okay to sexualize 6-year-olds in school and hate us calling it "grooming", but for a man to convince a 29-year-old to go to bed with him is "grooming" and worth ruining his life over.
She was in a relationship with him for a couple of years. I don’t know if he ever invited other women he worked with to his hotel room.
And to make them really life-like they can be programmed to accuse you of rape before you sock them away!
If I were a man today, I would record all non committed sexual encounters and clearly ask and receive a big yes to the question...as insurance policy. Sad times.
I worked in the film industry. EVERYBODY knew about slime ball Harvey. Even the interns. You took a meeting with him and it was tit for tat. If a pretty actress did not play his game, might not work much again. Rough business.
one thing.....someone like Harvey Weinstein’s hotel room is usually huge, a suite with several rooms.
He’s not working out of a Motel 6 type arrangement.
Going up to the suite to do work is probably normal.
Harvey was not normal though.
MIT is leftist. Vaccines and booster for covid are mandatory, they are still requiring masks indoors on all campus buildings, their employees 401K plan recently added a Blackrock fund, they use Crowdstrike to monitor IP traffic. The profs push ESG for corps. They’re FAR left.
I had no idea
Lol!!
That you, Bianca?
