Thank you for commenting! It's incredible how people will circle the wagons. You won't believe it until you see it in action! When there isn't accountability though, it just tends to proliferate and kick the can down the road. USC has literally had regulators from the U.S. Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights after them from 2012, and more than a decade later they are still monitoring USC. I think by far the biggest check on corrupt behavior that protects whistleblowers is journalism, and that's why whistleblower journalism really matters. Sometimes the press just doesn't want the story. I'll be protecting the Jane Doe here at all costs, the John Doe has the resources to absolutely destroy us if we name him.

Cancelling whistleblowing would be wrong. Cancelling loving good looking people or not so good looking people would be wrong. We need whistleblowing for un-covering injustice when no one is brave enough to stop it.

And love for attractivity is estimated by feelings of short or long terms which means it shouldn’t be considered as a delict against a social community but in some cases against oneself.

However there is one ethical issue for both actions - betraying someone‘s trust.

Although there are two great arguments to restore the lost integrity in the front of community : for one would be - fixing things (or trying to fix things) For the other - love to be happy is everyone’s right to live.
