Sorry to spam with non-fandom related things, but I felt this was important enough to warrant a post. Somebody was erroneously namedropped in the thread in yesterday's post regarding a rapist, and is dealing with the fallout of it now -

Seriously guys, please doublecheck before dropping actual names/usernames in serious issues like this. I'm all for people being safe, but not for dragging innocent people through the mud as collateral damage. These two people are pretty obviously not the same person.

Thanks.

Yes, assuming that a misogynist creep might be a rapist is just as bad as assuming women who try to talk about their rapes are horrible lying cunts.

Really.

If there's any lesson to be taken away from this, it's that people in general think women are less important than men, period, and we should always care more about the poor falsely accused man than the rape victim.
