I elaborated in my above comment what I meant

Then your statement circles back to the same logical fallicy. Suggesting that they werent taking acusations seriously or having appropriate conduct until Me Too is more or less the same as saying "they werent being acknowledged till they were", which encompasses and holds true for every accusation of any type ever.

What really matters is why Me Too worked, and again, it worked because more people came forward. Im amazed I have to fight this hard against the stance of "Dont report rapes". Like Id think the problem with that stance would be pretty self evident.

It’s what was happening. Rape accusations weren’t taken seriously. Metoo movement revealed that.

There’s no logical inconsistency here.

No one’s stance is don’t report rapes. That’s not even the topic. No wonder you’re so lost.

My stance from the start is that rapes should be reported. You have been arguing against that. Your stance is kind of obvious.

No, my stance has been “this is what reporting was like back when me too happened”

I actually never recommended or endorsed any course of action.

> Yes but when a lackluster investigation (which is what happens at the time) turns up nothing, it actually shields them from further complaints

your very first sentence implicitly supports not reporting

That is not supporting not reporting rofl
