I largely agree. At this stage we don't known enough to tell who is a victim here. We likely will never know for sure, nor do we have a right to demand to know

My speculation is purely for its explaining or predictive power on the question why all of this is coming out at once, and who's behind revealing all this. I favor the "conspiracy" version (someone wants him gone and exposes his real secrets in the most damaging way). But if we consider that this might all be organically triggered by the revelation of the spy affair we can't discount that the numerically largest group that feels wronged by his affairs might be employees that were disadvantaged whenever affair partners got special treatment

The affair partners don’t even have to actually get special treatment. The perception that it happened is enough.

Underlying this is that workplaces are supposed to be egalitarian, free of favouritism, and strict meritocracies?

On what planet is this a reasonable expectation rather than a fever dream of idealistic naivety?

I don’t think it is productive to pretend things are not as they actually are, any more than it is to pretend that how they are is how they ought to be in a perfect world.
