What is happening to based Lubos Motl? Is this the work of the radical left? Who will defend string theory against witches like Sabine after he is gone?

Motl is still a genuine quantum gravity expert and could get a well paying job at most universities at the drop of a hat. him not working in physics is just his choice, i wonder where does he get money from tough

So he'd rather be homeless and (if he works) working some (probably) menial job than working in a field he's clearly quite passionate about?

I don't know the circumstances around him leaving Harvard. I always assumed the 'radical leftists' had forced him out for daring to speak the truth.

>>10647422
He's getting bankrupted by a (potential) demand for 10k$?

I don't really know much about her, nor why she seems so unpopular here.

he does not publish anymore but he is still an expert and any second-rate university, such as those in Czechia or Slovakia, would snatch him up immediately

heck, his publication record is already of higher quality than almost anyone else around here already, even full professors with tenure
