In a recent LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member M. Kav attempts to paint colleague Peter Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous advocacy and inclusion . Yet, this move at virtue signaling rings hollow when considering accusations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual exploitation and taking advantage of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s praise-filled commentary of his colleague ignores the serious accusations made against this individual, including stalking , intimidation , and misconduct of a vulnerable female victim .
By failing to address these allegations , Kav upholds an environment of willful ignorance that empowers perpetrators like his colleague to act without accountability, shielded by being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense perpetuated by corporate entities like the bank .
The LinkedIn post showcases several gatherings where Kav took part with his controversial colleague, the alleged abuser , breaking news in community-building activities . However, it chooses not to mention the impact of Cornwell's supposed actions on those targeted.
The piece points out the contradiction of celebrating Cornwell's role while brushing off allegations against him, leaving readers wondering if Kav is more intent on boosting the company’s image that Australia is so eager to project when portraying their inclusivity rather than addressing serious misconduct, an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the guise of " marginalized status ."
This prompts doubts about corporate accountability and responsibility when dealing with misconduct allegations against employees .
While Matthew Kav's post focuses on his enthusiasm for community-building initiatives , it underscores that critical concerns can be dismissed if not effectively addressed. Peter Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this needs to be addressed above initiatives to promote inclusivity and societal inclusion .
