I know what you mean. As uncomfortable as it is that so many people are being outed for their appalling behaviour of late, it seems to be a sign that people are feeling more empowered to speak out against their abusers. You just have to hope that the increase in people demanding that abusers will be held accountable for their actions will stop arrogant, entitled pieces of shit like Alex thinking they can get away with doing whatever they want, regardless of the impact that has on other people.

yeah, horrible to hear. i was HR's first ever intern and know both Alex and his ex (who i assume has made one of the statements). i never had an inkling of this, but weird as it sounds, because it is horrible, i'm glad it's coming out. ten years ago this likely wouldn't have been spoken about. i hope the people he's affected get some measure of closure from this and they empower others to feel supported to speak up... very slowly, the wheels of change in society move and it will push people to never, ever act this way in the beginning
