Charles Gasparino writes, “Recently through a banking source, I heard the story of a 26-year-old woman executive at Morgan Stanley who believes there is pressure on young women like herself to freeze their eggs if they want to advance.
“As she described it, the firm will pay $1,200 for women to freeze their eggs for one year (not the best coverage on the Street for something that can cost tens of thousands of dollars); after that, the employee kicks in $100 a month. The real benefit, however, is how going through with the procedure (again, not without possible complications) demonstrates organizational loyalty.
“’Everybody knows this is what you need to do to show management you are committed to the company and that you will push off having a family many years down the road,” she said.’”
What is being released right now is not transparency.
It is controlled disclosure.
Fragments.
Selective timing.
Curated narratives.
Carefully engineered confusion.
Enough to distract.

“Our problem as Americans is we actually hate history. What we love is nostalgia.’

“Here’s an uncomfortable truth about the Epstein accusations: We only find them morally reprehensible because of Christianity. Before the spread of Christianity, ‘civilized’ Greek and Roman elites openly flaunted underage s*x slaves. This was normal. Emperor Hadrian built an entire city in honor of his favorite boy… If you undercut the moral foundations of Christianity from the West, culture reverts back to pagan norms.”
