2. Because it's a toxic movement that promotes burning people at the state of public opinion before any facts, evidence, or due process has a chance.  It might have started off as something intended to be good, but it quickly and irreparably diverted course. Take a look at Chris Hardwick. His ex wrote an angry open letter accusing him of things, and instantly he was crucified in public opinion, lost his jobs, lost his public appearances, got every mention of him wiped from the site he created... only for an independent investigator to later find zero evidence against him. Damage already done though, he got his show back, but not until he went through a long period of torment and defamation. His career/life won't ever be the same.

A simple accusation gets you automatically fired these days, and there's really nothing you can do to defend yourself against it, true or not.

Unless you're the POTUS or running to be the Speaker of the House.  


All seriousness aside it was inevitable that a woman or two would get caught up in the movement...and that men everywhere would rejoice that now they can say the entire movement is moot and awful.

SSF mentioned all the gay Republicans...I see a difference between a movement to encourage people who have been abused or oppressed that ends up having some members that did the oppressing called out of it (metoo) and a movement designed to oppress a group that is being lead by people who are self loathing.

If this is true she will suffer the same fate as others before her (except prominent republicans) and the movement will still have done good.
