Let's throw some stuff on the wall and see what sticks, shall we?

1. Righteous Indignation and Grievance-Mongering

Here we go again. A high-and-mighty and vocal left-wing agitator turns out to be as rotten as they come. Harumph! All the time they were accusing us conservatives of being unevolved throwbacks and secretly wishing we could drag womenfolk off to our caves by their hair (to be kept at least 24 inches long, on penalty of the lash), they were actually doing it!

2. Some Sober Tut-Tutting About the State of the World

Well, now we know Harvard and Harvard employees can't win. If you work for Harvard and someone makes an accusation against you, you cannot rely on your employer to have your back. If they defend you, they subject themselves to accusations of having double-standards and not enforcing their own rules. So you're very likely to be thrown under the bus, have disabilities imposed on your work, and eventually dismissed. Not even being and insider will help you. You can't even trust your co-workers. What a sad state of affairs.

3. With a Side of Snark

What a sad state of affairs the intermingling of men and women in the workplace has brought upon us all. Harvard should think long and hard about creating separate parallel institutions for men and for women so that we don't have this constant cloud of suspicion hanging over us and can all breathe freely. Women could work without fear of male co-workers harassing them. Men could work without fear of female co-workers undoing their careers with but a word. Truly a marvelous idea...they really should give it a go and see what happens.
