Laura Helmuth, the embattled Editor-in-Chief of Scientific American, announced her departure from the publication after a very public meltdown on social media following President Donald Trump’s overwhelming victory on election night.
Helmuth wrote, “I’ve decided to leave Scientific American after an exciting 4.5 years as editor in chief. I’m going to take some time to think about what comes next (and go birdwatching), but for now I’d like to share a very small sample of the work I’ve been so proud to support.”
After the election, Helmuth shared a series of posts on X, that have since been deleted, saying that those who voted for Donald Trump were racist, sexist, and fascist.
First, she asked followers for help for those “devasted by the results.”
“Any advice for what workplaces can do to help people who are devasted by the election? Thanks so much.”
She then called her fellow Gen Xers, who were instrumental in Trump’s election, “fascists.”
“I apologize to younger voters that my Gen X is so full of f***ing fascists.”
“Solidarity to everybody whose meanest, dumbest, most bigoted high-school classmates are celebrating early results because f*** them to the moon and back.”
Then, like any typical ivory-tower far-left “intellectual,” she made sure to express her disdain for those in “flyover” country, calling them racist and sexist.
