Thx for understanding the severity and apologies for the frothing rage, I have had to see this shitbag for more than a decade skate around from one gig to the next leaving sexual abuse allegations in his wake. If you check his Twitter he’s still using his influence and recognition to get close to young undergraduates on the reg - he’s out of the uni systems finally but there’s still too many places he can operate.
Didn’t even notice it was you every time, just responded to all the minimizing comments with frothing rage.
For context, academia is rife with sexual abusers who operate through extensive 1 on 1 abuse via the power difference (they hold funding, they hold access, for grad students they hold your future too). This fucker is horrendous and systemic, but there’s tons more like him. Most don’t manage major media recognition, but they all have hurt many people. Universities don’t like to reprimand professors that are getting grants for “minor” sexual abuse claims, cause if they did they’d have a scandal and less grant money. Usually the best an abuse victim can do is leave, damage their career path in doing so, and make room for a new abuse victim - with no action against the perpetrator.
In academia, the victims are often still minimized. As I said, he was ejected for the boob grab because there were multiple witnesses - that’s what it took. The multitude of everything else in his career was carefully orchestrated so the victim has no witnesses or help. He was ejected for it because the uni admin knew full well about the rest and wanted him gone before anything worse came out.
It’s horrendous, it’s systemic, and the abusers should not be quoted or promoted.
FUCJ you fuck you that’s the shit that got him canned cause there were actual eye witnesses. The rest he sets up to be 1 on 1 and in the early 2000s women might as well pretend it didn’t happen cause that’s all they felt they could do. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/peteraldhous/lawrence-krauss-sexual-harassment-allegations Shilling for this fuckwit read some linked articles they’re bad, he’s bad, he’s an obvious serial abuser, he hung out with Epstein and defended him when he was accused of prostituting a minor, he does indeed hide in ambiguity and you fucking let those lightly mentioned abuses disappear and center on one where the academic clearly never expected to have someone walk up and grab their tit.
