[Ipg-smz] Bro culture in action

[Richard Santalesa]

Not sure how you make that Evil Knievel-level leap of what I’m suggesting. My comments are reserved EXCLUSIVELY to the scenario I’m describing in the context of a false accusation’s consequences and the results of the situation in responses by men.  

 

I think you will have to agree that the #MeToo movement was accompanied by, in various quarters, the push of a #BelieveAllWomen corollary, which not only damaged the valid attention that should be paid to the #MeToo issue, but then set the stage for blowback as we’ve seen.

You're suggesting that *being accused of* rape is worse than *being* raped. We disagree. 

 

Anyway, you're getting far away from the flawed original concepts: That #MeToo is an accusation per se, or has led to an increase in false accusations. Journalists don't parrot such nonsense.
