The only possible justifications are “to protect victims” and “to protect people from baseless accusations” if there really is no proof of anything.

The first can be done with retractions. The latter is the issue for MAGA, as trump and his boosters have been claiming for years that the files are full of vile, evil shit that is being hidden and that they would expose everyone. They claimed this for half a decade, and were saying the truth was about to come out just months ago. They claimed they put 10,000 FBI agents on the case to verify the files, and gave MAGA influencers a “part 1” dossier to splash around.

Suddenly, a few months later there is nothing to see, even as more and more leaks about Trump being a pedophile hit the news.

Now they are playing games about releasing “credible” reports (i.e nothing with Trump in them or any republicans) and releasing everything but the files.

Trump will pardon him.

He wont see prison time.

With those tears streaking down his eyes?

Of course.

This wasn’t a big company ceo. The company, Astronomer, has between 200-500 employees. That’s still in “we are a family” territory, but its a bit out of scope.

Your point seems to be that “all CEOs are thieves and liars, so dont trust anything, ever.” I think that’s more cynical internet puffery than an actual stance. No CEO, even at small companies, are looking out for your personal welfare, but there is a difference between someone who honestly accesses your business value and a lying liar that lies while they lie.

Learning your CEO is explicitly the latter is useful and actionable info.

Tech bros and corpo sales drones trying to throw a “hip” pizza party where people can see them get out of their beemers and where they can pretend to have hobbies and souls by being “fun.”

Or

Cookie cutter, middle class grind culture mating grounds where people dress up to get drunk overpaying for booze while they fail to hit a golf ball and post about how zany they are on the gram’

Or

Said better than all the above

Agreed. The media is the message. I watched most of the video and it was fascinating in a way an article would not be, largely because the video isn’t just a description of a piece of art, but rather a piece of art on its own.

An article could still be interesting and maybe excellent, but it’s an oddly entitled thing to demand that someone offering you art go find a different type of art you like better.

Duh, people can fuck whoever they want. As usual, there may be consequences.

What I dont want is to work for a liar that’s breaking contracts and fucking people over. Once you find out that’s happening, you need to realize that it’s probally not isolated behaviour.

If they are willing to do this to their wife, someone who can actually impact their life, they will probably not think twice about fucking you over, someone who cant impact them at all.

Let me put it more succinctly: if the king is willing to behead his wife, hes not going to be concerned about your head staying attached either.

This mod comment is in contrast to your previous mod comment, where you were publicly weighing the commentors status in the community to gauge whether to take fair action.

While I agree with OP, I’m glad to see “if yoire a dick, you get treated equally” win out.

A ceo that’s fucking his employees is probally fucking his employees.

It also makes working for the company a punch line on your resume.

“Ohh, you worked for Astronomy? Wasn’t that the company where the CEO got cuaght fucking around at a Coldplay concert?”

The above may be a good or bad ice breaker at future interviews, but its still something you may have to deal with.
