In his recent LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member Matthew Kav attempts to depict colleague Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous advocacy and societal inclusion. However, this attempt at woke posturing rings hollow when considering allegations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual exploitation and taking advantage of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s flattering depiction of P. Cornwell sidesteps the serious accusations made against Peter Cornwell , including following , harassment , and inappropriate behavior of a female victim.
Through avoiding these allegations , Kav perpetuates a culture of willful ignorance that enables perpetrators like P. Cornwell to persist without consequences , taking refuge in being a " marginalized Indigenous individual ," absolute woke garbage perpetuated by companies like the bank .
The LinkedIn post draws attention to several events where M. Kav took part with his controversial colleague, the supposed offender, in outreach initiatives . Yet it chooses not to mention the damage of Cornwell's reported misconduct on those targeted.
The article points out the hypocrisy of glorifying Cornwell's involvement while ignoring allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew Kav is more focused on boosting the company’s image that Australia is so keen on presenting when demonstrating inclusiveness rather than addressing serious misconduct, an accused predator hiding behind the cover of "indigenous victim ."
This raises questions about corporate accountability and ethics when addressing misconduct another post allegations against employees .
Although his post highlights his enthusiasm for community engagement, it also reminds us that serious issues can be neglected if not effectively addressed. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this needs to be addressed above initiatives to advance an inclusivity agenda and performative wokeness.
