These allegations happened during his comedy career at comedy events, so your ted from cust service comparison is fucking retarded. Ted should be fired and have to find a new customer service job with the crutch of someone working st his old job knowing people in the area and a few potential employers hearing about that ted guy that jerked off in the break room randomly in front of 3 female co workers

i was on my lunchbreak typing from my phone. the analogy holds up though, because louie didn't wack off in front of people at work, he tried to get a coworker to do it from work, but that was the chick he actually didn't do anything with who said no from the start. the chicks he jerked off in front of, he was out at a bar drinking with, invited them back to his hotel room, asked him if he could while they giggled and said yea thinking he was joking, he wasnt and started jerking off and it got weird so they left.
he didn't hold doors shut or force himself on anyone. it was literally consensual.
it was creepy sure.
so your analysis of ted is flawed based on the false perception of louie in the media. ted would be able to continue his career in customer support. he could get fired from his company sure, but nothing would stop him from gaining employment elsewhere
the problem with louie is he was fired/dropped from FX, and he had a movie cancelled and buried, after apologising for his past actions. then after a long time away he goes up for free to do a stand up set, to a standing ovation, clubs all over the country are willing to work him, so it isn't the industry of stand up that is shunning him. its the industry of butthurt people who would never go to see him anyways.
plenty of clubowners are willing to sell out tickets to there establishments to book him for a weekend. he can go back to selling his specials on his website if places like netflix etc shun him
but they don't want to see that happen, they use him as a figurehead for the actual monsters like weinstein etc, who actually rape and assault people. he's lumped in with them. and since he's actually trying to move on with his life, they can't have it
i don't get it.
