> Aren't we supposed to erase him and his works from history now, then? I rather think the point is to prevent people who are currently engaging in sexual abuse from being in a position where they can abuse their power to do it again. I don't think very many people think that Harvey Weinstein's extensive library of films that he produced should be tossed onto a bonfire, even if they think he should no longer be in a position to coerce actresses into sleeping with him, and should face charges for having done it in the past. This author is long dead. There's nothing to protect anyone from.
