#metoo was a needed movement, but in certain cases it definitely went too far. I think the “believe women” rhetoric makes sense in the contact of “sexual assault happens more than you think, we should stop completely ignoring or actively disbelieving women on impulse when they share their stories”. But some people just took it as “why would any woman ever lie about this, they must be telling the complete and full truth in all circumstances” which is unfortunately how the Al Franken allegations went.

Jesus why was the text so goddamn big
Probably markdown mistake. ‘#’ is the syntax for Heading 1. ‘#metoo’ movement.
Aaahhh. Yeah that’d probably do it.
