> His opinions on advertising can still be worth hearing.
If so, his opinions on advertising will spread despite his illiberal opinions on the value of women engineers.
For my purposes, ensuring people’s illiberal attacks in places of work attach to them wherever they may work is important until they disavow those actions.
First off, he didn't "attack" anyone. The phrase "illiberal attacks" is vague. It's unclear what constitutes such an attack. This ambiguity could lead to the punishment of individuals for expressing unpopular or controversial opinions, even if those opinions don't incite violence or directly harm others.
A core tenet of liberalism is the protection of free speech, even for ideas some might find offensive. Your lack of clarity here threatens that principle.
Secondly, your emphasis is on punishment over rehabilitation. No path to reconciliation or understanding. No consideration for potential for growth or change. You seem bent on creating a system where past transgressions, however minor, can permanently impact someone's life.
You came across as the least liberal person I can think of. Hopefully I will never have to work or deal with someone with your mindset.
