TW: Sexual assault, abuse, child abuse, suicidal ideation, severe mental illnesses/trauma, graphic (sexual) langauge
This post aims to raise awareness of a collection of statements made by Annie Altman, Sam Altman's (lesser-known) younger sister, in which Annie asserts that she has suffered various (severe) forms of abuse from Sam Altman throughout her life (as well as from her brother Jack Altman, though to a lesser extent.)
Annie states that the forms of abuse she's endured include sexual, physical, emotional, verbal, financial, technological (shadowbanning), pharmacological (forced Zoloft), and psychological abuse.
This post also includes excerpts from a related nymag article on Sam Altman, and a few other select sources I consider relevant.
I do not mean to speak for Annie; rather, my goal is to amplify her voice, which I feel is not currently receiving sufficient attention.
Disclaimer: I have tried my best to assemble all relevant information I could find related to this (extremely serious) topic, but this is likely not a complete compendium of information regarding the (claimed) abuse of Annie Altman by Sam Altman.
Disclaimer: I would like to note that this is my first post on LessWrong. I have tried my best to meet the writing standards of this website, and to incorporate the advice given in the New User Guide. I apologize in advance for any shortcomings in my writing, and am very much open to feedback and commentary.

four years old with a 13 year old "brother" climbing into my bed non-consensually anymore. (You're welcome for helping you figure out your sexuality.) I've finally accepted that you've always been and always will be more scared of me than I've been of you."

sick 20-something sister you could withhold your dead dad's money from, to cope."
