This is why #metoo feels like a witch hunt


It's that guilty until proven innocent mentality that i don't like.Even before these accusations have been properly investigated or proven yet his affiliates are dropping him like a sack of potatos.Not saying the guys innocent but he should at least be given the benefit of the doubt until the investigation is done.

Innocent until accused seems to be the pattern.

It's kinda become, 'all men are guilty and waiting to be outed.'

TV series and movies subtly reinforce this idea portraying masculine men as evil, betrayer, abusers; and wimpy men as good. Also women can do no wrong. Some examples are Lucifer, which made the good guys wishy-washy and the only masculine man, Cain, evil. GOT, killed off the masculine men, watered down the good men, andade the rulers women. Westworld killed off many of the men, put women in leadership roles, the only tough guy is a murderer/rapist, the women cannot be killed.
