TL;DR Summary
Billionaire hedge fund CEO Bill Ackman became embroiled in campus culture wars at Harvard, accusing the university of failing to address antisemitism and targeting its president, Claudine Gay, leading to her resignation. Ackman aligned with right-wing activist Christopher Rufo in a campaign against diversity initiatives, but faced backlash when instances of plagiarism in his wife Neri Oxman's work were exposed. Ackman defended Oxman, criticized media coverage, and delved into legal strategies, ultimately learning that being an online "protagonist" comes with its own risks.
