…But under Schwab’s decadeslong oversight, the Forum has allowed to fester an atmosphere hostile to women and Black people in its own workplace, according to internal complaints, email exchanges and interviews with dozens of current and former Forum employees and other people familiar with the Forum’s practices.
…
Since the Forum’s earliest years, staffers say women received warnings about Schwab: If you find yourself alone with him, he may make uncomfortable comments about your appearance. They describe his behavior as more awkward than menacing, but inappropriate for a leader…(A) European staffer, who worked in Geneva in the 2000s, said Schwab never crossed the line to physical contact with her, but that his pattern of suggestive remarks and behavior was “a horrible thing as a woman to go through.” Once, she said, he propped his leg up on her desk with his crotch in front of her face and told her he wished she was Hawaiian because he’d like to see her in a Hawaiian costume.
…
Old timers at the Forum said Schwab liked to hire attractive people, who typically staffed the annual event at Davos. Former Forum executives said the situation was ripe for sexual harassment and that several staffers complained to them about inappropriate behavior by partners. There was even a term for sexual contact between VIPs and Forum staffers, said a former employee: “white on blue action,” for the color of badges worn by the two parties.

You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet, peons. /S
On the one hand, I do believe these people pay lip service to the whole diversity cultism. It's something they say, not something they believe.
On the other hand, I also believe special "protected" groups look for reasons to say they've been aggrieved even if they haven't.
Don’t forget. Black people are amongst the “little people of flyover country”.
They hate ALL of us peasants. But ones with more melanin even worse.
Mess with Satan get the horns.
Of course. They’re just a bunch of miserable sinners like the rest of us.
I think it was C. S. Lewis who said “no clever arrangement of bad eggs will produce a
good omelet.”
Oh my. How shocking. My surprised/shocked face....😴😴😴😴
You vill own nothink und you vill be happy in your Hawaiian outfit. Und do not forget to eat ze bugs!
LOL! Too rich! Literally and figuratively!
Dictatorial leadership..what could possibly be the problem.
And, this surprises who? Oh, the base with an IQ < 85. Yeah, got it.
“…hostile to women and Black people in its own workplace, according to internal complaints,“
It isn’t possible to have any complaints against white guys so who the hell else would be bitching?
Shocking. 🙄
Other than against white guys
Davos: women and people of color suffer most.
