> Removing someone from a position of privilege when they've proven to be a disgusting human being and refuse to change is the most sensible thing to do.

define a "disgusting" which works for everyone.

> I don't see why morals need to transcribed in law for it to be something someone should do.

because morals tend to differ radically on whom you ask. the pope has different morals from me, you have different morals than joe biden. as we are in the "i read the biography and use that as weapon"-state: you are interested in philosophy. what moral and amoral is, is discussed since millenia, without getting to a final answer.

> That some laws are unjust? You'd just push and say that whatever law makes him guilty would be unjust.

the same as you could fix the laws that make one guilty. that's why laws don't work retroactive.

> Stop trying to solve social ills with technical means as you'd say.

i don't know if i'd call a largely philosophical art (cf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jurisprudence) technical, but ymmv.
