Good riddance. I don’t care if he didn’t actively molest or abuse a child, he’s still complicit in the production of child pornography and the abuse that entails.

“At every point in my career, I have sought to uplift my colleagues and cultivate a culture of respect.”

I think he meant upskirt instead of uplift. And I suppose he did cultivate a nice respectable rape culture everywhere he worked, so that’s good.

“and this has been a difficult, but valuable lesson.”

Like I understand…

There’s really no question what AMPAS should do today.

I used to worship cultural encyclopedias like Hadrian, but I saw the way they interacted with women, and it was so disillusioning. Young 20 something girls (about the age of a volunteer) won’t understand how “all-knowing & powerful guys” like this will effect them, until the thing that they were most passionate about…

The other horrifying thing about this is that no one who has worked or volunteered is surprised, even if they never witnessed any harassment prior to this.
