The number of examples I have seen of people being told to shut up about their lived experiences with sexual abuse in the past 24 hours on this platform is deeply disturbing.

I am calling on y’all to take a deep breath and listen to women for once. There is a time and place for tone policing and it’s never the very minute a woman speaks up.

Your comment is kind of funny because it’s definitely problematic in several ways. So I’m not surprised at all that you have heard from others before that you’re part of the problem. When enough people tell you that, then maybe you should do some selfcrit instead of continuing to victimblame women for experiencing sexism 🤷

It's funny that you assumed that "enough people told me that" from one instance that this reminded me of. I didn't victim blame them for experiencing sexism. I said that accusing innocent people who they've never interacted with and generalizing statements is ridiculous. Maybe be more specific on how my comment was "problematic" instead of some vague doublespeak.
