Praxis is when you need things to be ok so you pretend they are.

no, he definitely is. tw: sexual assault

spoiler

Even with the context, it is still pro sexual assault. Maybe he doesn't see it that way, but he is still spreading rape culture. "The movement against sexual violence has turned into violence" is calling anti-sexual violence action violence. That is simply not true. He goes on to elaborate: "It has destroyed eros, it has destroyed seduction. " That's what he's calling violence. That's what he's saying is as bad as rape. He's saying that getting someone's consent before touching them is tantamount to violence to the toucher because it's "destroying eros" and "destroying seduction." Those things are really not equal at all. Getting consent before touching someone is mandatory, and if someone finds it a burden, that's not violence being done to them, not even close. This guy is promoting rape culture, full stop.

Edited to add: if this type of reasoning fools you, you should do some self-work regarding feminism. His reasoning is basically the same as someone saying " 1. Example of something vaguely feminist" 2. That feminist thing I just said was ok in the past, but now things have gone too far" 3. Promotion of sexual violence. 4. It's ok, I have women friends who are misogynistic and agree with me." He's packaging this whole thing to promote rape culture values. If you're not able to see that, you should do some self-work around feminism.

Yeah. The propaganda machine has told them covid is not a problem anymore, and that's what they believe. People are being brainwashed.

That's really rough. I'm so sorry.

He should fire himself too, from the sound of it.

Just to be clear, women being constantly being belittled and treated as secretaries is discrimination based on sex, and it is extremely likely that they being sexually harassed in ways that you don't see. There are tons of ways for bosses and coworkers to pull people aside, force people to stay late, or even pressure meetups outside of the workplace framed as business/mentoring lunches, to set up situations where they can say and do things that no one else will see or hear. Belittling people is often a practice that abusers use to wear down victims psychologically, to set the stage for ongoing and escalating abuse. Many abusers are very socially clever these days, and will go to great lengths to groom their victims into not realizing they are being abused, target people who need the job/reference/experience etc. and keep as much of the abuse as possible outside of official records like email, and even manufacture documentation in retaliation of the people they abuse, for example, creating false poor performance reviews, so they can dispose of victims when they are done and have a evidence in their own favor if there is a court case.
