There are few examples of a man who had their name completely ruined over sexual harassment accusations and died with that charge forever condemning them as former Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) chairman Rajendra Pachauri.
Pachauri had previously made contributions to IPCC reports outlining how climate change is likely to hurt the poorest
He was by all means considered very esteemed and his climate change committee had shared a Nobel Prize with Al Gore that was awarded in 2007
Yet all it took for his name to be disgraced was sexual harassment allegations by a younger female colleague.
This was of course unsurprisingly first reported on climate skeptic sites like wattsupwiththat and climatedepot and continued negative coverage from these places of Pachauri continued even after his death.
However in due time even the media that once reported favorably about him turned on him and began to associate his name with sexual harassment.
Despite Pachauri's claims to the contrary about the allegations and the case not being fully decided, the media acted as if he was guilty and reported on it that way by remarking about it an accusatory tone even when reporting news that he had passed away.
Implications and relevance to inceldom: What this shows is that no matter how prestigious, esteemed or good the work you do and whatever accolades you may receive from society and the media, all of that is rendered nil as soon as news that you are accused of sexual harassment and misconduct toward women or alleged news about this and controversy begins to swirl around you.
The passing of Rajendra Pachauri and the accusatory tones highlighted in the media even after his death was really something quite remarkable to me at the time because it really couldn't have been a better example of how unattractive males are considered guilty before proven innocent and that the worse suspicions will be fanned by the same people (that previously lauded your accomplishments) when it is convenient for them to start doing so if they felt you slipped up.
Rajendra Pachauri's death was used by the media to grandstand about women's issues and cast him as ultimately a very flawed man before courts had the chance to even prove whether he was guilty or not.
"Pachauri had denied the charges and his attorneys claimed his messages were hacked in an attempt to malign him. New Delhi police filed a complaint in court but the trial could not be completed."
It was an infuriating thing to witness how quickly the world had turned on this man just because of sexual harassment allegations and how the media chose to fixate on this aspect about what he was going through up to his dying hours.
What this really again shows is that it doesn't matter how successful you are or what kind of good work you do to help society. As soon as you are seen as trespassing upon the sanctity of women society immediately disregards all that and casts an accusatory tone to you before you are even convicted, using you as an unwilling participant to make an example out of you to advance their crusade. A pre-judged male that had to take the fall so that others may grandstand and use your fall to make a statement about the supposed never ending progress toward "women's rights"
