Summers’ 'Bad Judgment' Finally Catches Up – Just With Epstein?
The BBC breathlessly reports Larry Summers' resignation from OpenAI's board, citing “frequent messages” to Jeffrey Epstein. This follows years of mainstream media giving Summers a pass for his prior roles. Summers, the architect of financial deregulation under Clinton and economic advisor during the 2008 crash, has a long history of being “too big to fail” in institutional circles (Source: The
Guardian, 2013 ). His policy recommendations consistently enriched the powerful while immiserating everyone else. Yet, now, his 'bad judgment,' as the BBC delicately puts it, is only defined by a convicted child molester. One might wonder why the corporate media selectively recalls inconvenient truths. It’s always about the sensational personal scandal, never the systemic policy failures that
destabilize global economies and line the pockets of the one percent. Summers' email exchanges with Epstein are merely a symptom; the disease is the revolving door of power and unaccountability he's always navigated. Guess AI hasn't learned to spot the truly manipulative figures in its boardroom yet.
