How does employing a rapist not constitute an unsafe work environment for female employees?

Jump

  • In what way is it different from murder or non sexual assault? They're all inexcusable, and the offender should be locked up for x amount of time for rehabilitation. Around 4-16% of men in US college(seriously, wtf) commit sexual assault, you can't just brush them under a carpet hope it all sorts out.

    Social isolation sounds like the worst possible solution if you want to stop repeat offences. Rather, they should learn how healthy social interactions work and where the line of personal space is drawn.

  • I agree that legal systems around the globe are not able to effectly convict rapists, but that doesn't mean companies should be able to fire a person based on rumours. Though for the record, in this instance OP mentioned that the person was convicted for his crimes.

  • If the person wasn't convicted for rape, at what grounds should the company fire the person on, rumours?

    And I don't think you can compare it to child molesters not being allowed to work with children. Women are ~50% of the workforce, you'll interact with them in nearly every work scenario. Your only option would be isolate a sizeable percentage of people from most jobs, with all the ramifications such a move would have.

  • From a Norwegian point of view, once someone has served their time, they've served their time and should be encouraged to get back into society. Freezing people out of society will only cause harm, and push them towards anti social behavior.

    The US model of punishing criminals is clearly proving to do more harm than good, so why would you push for that model even further?

    • What's some good advice for communicating with others online?

  • Lemmy overall seems to really struggle with sarcasm.

    You can say that again, I dropped the "/s" when saying that it's always 50-50 chance whether you win or lose since there's only two options, and people thought I were serious.

    • What are some things you think tech people presume others know, and know how to do?

  • I personally don't think most people would even know how to make a text file on their computer without looking it up. Anything beyond usage of a Web browser and maybe connecting to WiFi is black magic for most.

  • Eh, I might ask the LLM about something, but I always open it sources to verify it summaries. You still can't trust them fully.

  • People will claim that you're wrong, but you're 100% correct. It's always 50-50. You either win, or you don't.

  • One of their (many) stereorypes in Europe is that they stink. It has also become a meme on the Internet to hate on French in Europe centric circles, mostly pushed by the English I think.

    • Nerds of Lemmy, what are all of the ways that make you a "cool" person?

  • Yeah... I need to stop wearing shorts when I go to the gym in the winter

  • Sorry, there just such a strong undercurrent of racism in a lot of comments that it's upsetting.

    That's understandable

    Have a great day!

    You too mate

  • I've never made any claim. I only tried to clarify that people aren't talking about conviction rate as you were alluding to in your original comment. I appreciate you backing up your claims with sources by default though, although commenting in an antagonistic manner isn't really conductive for healthy discussions.

    • Social networks are getting stingy with their data, leaving third-party developers in the lurch

  • It goes to the community mods too yeah. But when it comes to spam/scams that is being posted, admins (at least on programming.dev) will remove it immediately and not wait for community moderators. Spammers will usually spam multiple communities at once and only admins have the capability of banning users entirely from the site/their instance.

    A few days ago a person created multiple accounts and spammed scat content across multiple communities. Moderators can't effectively stop those kind of things.
