These "strongman" are pathetically weak. As soon as Harvard stood up to them they folded like a wet paper bag.
Fear is their weapon. Deny them that and its been proven that they can be beaten. Maybe not easily or without difficulty, but victory is entirely possible.
Not looking like Harvard is a good example. I've seen into that they quietly capitulated after all.
Source, because that just sounds like a load of MAGA cope.
This story is what info about that seems to come from. I haven't looked into the legitimacy of it.

Truth out is usually pretty solid, but a lot of the sources seem to be either working with information they aren't sharing, or are making leaps of logic. This could either be Harvard quietly dismantling their DEI program... Or massively expanding it.
Yeah, "someone said it on Bluesky" isn't exactly a great foundation for an article.
