Harvey Weinstein: fired from his job and from the Oscar Academy, deprived of his 81 Oscars on the grounds of public witness of women.
Imagine somebody classified as a victim being treated like that in absence of any criminal conviction: say, a (black, female etc.) shop assistant being fired because she is accused of theft in the shop by a number of customers, without any criminal conviction. That for sure would provoke a storm of indignation arguing the presumption of innocence and ranting against arbitrary sanctions of the shop owner that are against employment law. You can’t fire anybody just because his or her political opinions don’t please you, or because of rumors that have no legal basis.
