If a dude doesn't manage to be egregious enough, have a weak enough social network, or provides too much value, it's hard to trigger the KICK HIM OUT, which leaves us with b) KEEP IT HUSH. I sorta want an option c) LET HIM STAY BUT ALSO BE PUBLIC ABOUT THE SUS BEHAVIOR

A version of c kinda exists with whisper networks, when you join a community and someone takes you aside at a party after they see you talking to Joe and goes 'haha yeah he's nice but be careful with him, Bethany reported he xyz'd her last year'

But this doesn't really work with public communities, like corporations or political movements. If you got a dude being sus towards women, you can't announce loudly "This dude is sus, but not enough to trigger kicking out, and he provides lots of value so he's staying'

No, you either have to take the extreme option or keep it totally hush, and then when finally it ends up blowing up people are like why were you suppressing this, but the answer is 'cause the only other option felt more extreme than warranted'

Uh you can just tell him in front of everyone and make fun him for it

In theory, yes. In practice, that just results in ejection. But a desire to make this viable was pretty much her lament.

One could talk to the dude.

The thing is, that seems to work about 0% of the time. People just get defensive and entrenched.

If those are the only two options, then kick him out. Don't see why they ever would be, though.

What do you mean by sus?

I know suspect, but why, sexism or something?
