The whole mob mentality and witch hunt aspect of the Me Too movement is troubling, no matter the genders of the parties involved.

I think that "witch hunt" is more extreme than is warranted by the facts. And it's much more off-putting to me to look at the people who want to defend even the people who have admitted to sexual abuse or misconduct. Where people are actively trying to rehabilitate Louis CK 9 months after he admitted to sexual harassment, without any kind of remorse or work in his part. Where Jian Gomeshi just today got published in the NY Review of Books. It's hard for me to look at that and say, oh it's an irresponsible witch hunt gone wild. As a society, most people still don't give a shit about the well being of women.

It's not a "witch hunt" and I wish people would quit calling it that.

The problem is that witches in the "witch hunting" sense (and not the Wiccans or whatever) don't exist, and sexual predators and rapists definitely do. A witch hunt also implies that everybody is being hysterical. And while there has been some overzealousness, some jumping to conclusions, and some misunderstandings, that's not the same thing. I think it's okay for people to want serial sexual harassers or assaulters to face some sort of punishment, even if it's just being fired. I think it's okay for any one person to tell their story from whenever and for people to believe them. Yes, some people lie and that's something that should be kept in mind, but in a he said/she said situation where they say opposite things, at least one of them is lying, and I find it hard to get upset with people for now generally believing the side of the people who say they were sexually assaulted/harassed, when for so long it was the other way around.
