No one has a right to be a leader. If leaders mismanaged abuse situations they should be removed from positions of leadership. The point of leadership is supposed to be service.
Okay I expect that is the default consensus, and is my default general desire too from a point of ignorance about any given case. I was just surprised that actors such as that weren’t listed in this writeup.
I would also like to say though, that depending how many cases you take, a case will be handled in a way that you could call mismanagement eventually. Extreme mismanagement is one thing and generally having poor policies, but slight mismanagement now and again is a bug of the world. I don’t expect 1000/1000 cases to be handled perfectly. Handling sexual misconduct cases is insanely hard. I mean, look, now we are even looking at cases where women at the time of reporting said they were satisfied with the CH Team’s handling but who went elsewhere anyway after saying that? So for example I’m not comfortable saying we should remove Julia Wise if an independent investigation says she mismanaged one case. I’m pretty sure hardly any EA wants that. It’s cases like that which make me very uncomfortable to speak in definite terms about anything.
