I can't even imagine what that moral panic would have been like if the internet and Twitter existed.

Look up McMartin Preschool and look up Frances and Dan Keller.

"Believer Her", "Believe Survivors", and "Believe Women" sound an awful lot like the "Believe The Children" of the 1980s.

In a completely separate thread I shared something I had read/heard about these things and it was along the lines of : The best thing we can do when an accusation is made is investigate it.  That doesn't mean we believe it is true.  It means we believe they believe it and we need to know for sure.

To you point too, think of all the people railroaded into prison only to be released years (or decades) later because it was found out the investigation was tainted.

It's a bad situation no matter what happens.
