        That’s kind of fucked up dang.

        Not just the abuse but the disconnection afterwards is fucked. And when there is smoke like this and that sort of disconnect there is bound to be other shit lurking in the background.

          Ah yes “themarysue.com”, where I get all my news from…

          Part of what makes this particular story noteworthy is the lack of coverage for so long by news outlets, so turning your nose up because of the news outlet that wrote the story kinda misses the point.

          If you’re so critical of The Mary Sue that you’re not even willing to read the article, that sounds like a self-enforced echo chamber. You’re always free to find coverage by another news outlet or even write to a news outlet you respect asking them to cover this story.

      There is none. There are some rumors and past allegations but no evidence or confirmation on why he was removed. Not sure why so many people go around spouting random things as facts.

        People love that endorphin rush that comes from being part of a Two Minutes Hate on a “deserving” subject.

        We aren’t downvoting you because we assume that didn’t happen. We are downvoting you because there is zero evidence that that is why he was fired.

            Ironic that you are accusing us of reading comprehension issues considering your link says the following:

            While we obviously don’t have any insight into the company’s decision, there is a lot of speculation being thrown about online that the move to remove Sam Altman, which came just over a month after Annie Altman’s allegations garnered attention in October, may possibly have less to do with his business abilities snd more to do with personal controversies.

            Your conclusion is based on nothing more than speculation, so you might want to work on your reading comprehension before going around accusing others of the same problem that you clearly are suffering from.

              Homie I’m not the one coming to the rescue of a dude that sexually assaulted his sister.

                Lol I’m not rescuing anyone, just pointing out the factual innacuracies in what you are saying. I have shown you where your evidence did not say what you were implying, but please, show me where I’m wrong with evidence.

                ETA: also, you’re wrongly assuming I wouldn’t want him to be fired for sexual assaulting his sister. I do want that, but at the current time, there is nothing other than speculation that would imply that is why he was fired, so I’ve downvoted you for spreading misinformation and for doubling down on your misinformation once that fact has been pointed out to you.

                  Ahem

                  Probably shouldn’t rehire someone you probably fired over sexually assaulting his sister…”

                  Now go fuck yourself, sex assault sympathizer.

                    Now it seems you’re confused as to what I wanted evidence of. I didn’t imply you never said “probably.” I read that part, but you provided a link as evidence that it was “probably” why he was fired, and it turns out the “probably” is all your premature conclusion while your link is careful not to draw the same conclusion.

                    And FYI, calling anyone who disagrees with your premature conclusion a “sex assault sympathizer” is straight up slander and only further shows that you have a habit of jumping to conclusions prematurely without evidence, so congrats on weakening your own conclusion even more.

                1. You have evidence of your accusation?
                2. You have evidence that is why he was fired?

                No, and no.

                This is why you’re being downvoted, and then you decide to double-down by insulting people. I would say that reflects an ideological perspective.
