In this day and age the word...
'asshole' is a lot less degrading than 'toxic environment'.
shareI'm sure us regular folk have had to work a jobs where the boss/owner(s) were complete assholes. I know I've had my share and those assholes today are living life comfortably and without recourse.
I really believe that with the pandemic a lot of actors out of work are starving for media attention and legitimacy as opportunities have shriveled up this past year. Seriously, most of these stories are involving people and situations from over a decade ago and feels nothing more like a collective resentment to square up past grievances.
