Graduate student (field unspecified but inferred as psychology or social sciences based on content focus)
The Twitter account @cremieuxrecueil is an anonymous handle primarily focused on topics related to race science, intelligence research, genetics, and critiques of social science studies. It gained prominence in online discussions around hereditarian views on IQ differences. In February 2025, an investigative article on polemics.md unmasked the account's operator as Jordan Lasker, a graduate student likely in psychology or a related field. The account has been active since at least early 2023, posting threads, data analyses, and debates. Recent activities as of October 2025 include critiquing statistical methods in research papers, calling out perceived misinformation on X, and engaging in controversies over race-related science, with posts showing ongoing interaction in niche intellectual communities.
Overall credibility is low to moderate due to anonymity (even post-unmasking, the account remains pseudonymous), association with controversial race science topics often labeled pseudoscientific, and lack of transparent professional affiliations. While the account provides detailed, source-backed analyses that appeal to niche audiences, it shows clear ideological bias toward hereditarian views, leading to selective engagement with evidence. Fact-checks and exposés highlight risks of misinformation in sensitive areas, advising caution; influence is amplified on X but not endorsed by academic institutions.
Assessment by Grok AI
The account demonstrates strong analytical skills in data interpretation and statistical critiques, often referencing public datasets accurately. However, it has faced fact-checks and controversies for promoting fringe race science interpretations, with accusations of cherry-picking data and engaging in p-hacking defenses. No major formal corrections issued, but community notes on X have disputed some claims. Historical posts show consistent debunking of opponents while defending hereditarian positions, leading to a mixed credibility record marred by involvement in polarized debates.

Newly-published data on autism symptoms among 18-year-olds shows us that the rise in autism diagnoses *cannot be ascribed to a genuine increase in autism.* The population didn't become any more autistic, we just diagnosed more people with less and less severe autism.

Pretty interesting: Companies that have adopted AI aren't hiring fewer senior employees, but they have cut back on hiring juniors ones.
