    The truth is Larry Summers has not been cancelled, but should be. Same applies to Ken Rogoff. In economic terms, if people don't get punished for catastrophically wrong analysis, then you create a moral hazard.https://twitter.com/blakehounshell/status/1398393214986489856 …

    Also, wild to see Ken Rogoff suggesting Larry Summers is a victim of ‘cancel culture’ https://twitter.com/blakehounshell/status/1398392732167688200 …

        Yes. Where is the accountability in the Reality Based Community? Why is it that regular readers of FinTwit, Krugman/Baker’s blogs would be more informed than these Experts?

        The problem is that there is so little accountability in the economics profession.

        Of course Summers hasn't been canceled (another example of how the term has shifted beyond any definite meaning) but it's salubrious that the Democrats and the Biden administration don't think he's worth listening to.

        Revised for precision: Since people keep getting rewards for even catastrophically wrong analysis, more and more of them keep lying even more. That creates growing threats of all sorts. Eventually these lead to hazards for the whole world. #ClimateCrisis

        It's the Marketplace of Ideas. They just aren't the Dead Hand people want right now. Maybe they should think about responding to current needs?

        Larry Summers was cancelled for me when he criticized @CornelWest rap album. It's been all downhill for him since then -- big mistake.
