Calling something ethical does not make it ethical. Defending clearly unethical conduct and calling it ethical is a pattern in this DAO.
When the DAO labels patently unethical conduct as ethical they encourage such behavior.

When defending one of their own becomes more important than doing justice, the DAO abandons their duty. That ain’t right.
