The orange site is being very normal about this, with upvoted comments like

It absolutely is (a human right to have sex) for two consenting adults who aren't blood related. It certainly isn't something for Ronald fucking McDonald to have an opinion about.

and

The board should punish Huang without punishing the industry and the nation. For example by cutting his salary and stock to 0 for 2 years.

Meanwhile the following is greyed out:

It's a huge deal for underlings who have to obey their masters. It's not a huge deal for masters who make the rules.

If you allow your employer to control your sexuality you are not fully human.

If only he had a non-related consenting adult called “his wife”

Wouldn’t that also tank the industry??

I think the first comment is trying to say that a boss has a right to screw his employees unless they say no, but I think these people really struggle with the concepts "consent" and "consequences." So their words are not very clear.
