If you want people to listen to victims, you have to treat people with respect. It sucks, but we victims and our supporters need to take a higher road to get people to listen to us. We can't use name calling, shaming, and closing ourselves off in a bubble that the right uses to divide us.
You can't just say listen to women while silencing everyone else voice. Because people like me got silenced on this board until one day I finally exploded in a ball of rage of constantly reading that people like me are rape apologist, because I was not ready to destroy Biden's life yet/ while still wanting to hear more from Tara.
People like me who are willing to swallow my own emotional pain to pragmatically vote for Joe regardless- because he is clearly better for women and victims rights than Trump every will be. Because the fight for victim rights just isn't about me, or Tara, or Ford. It about the million of women, men, children, and LGTBQ victims every day lives. We are not all going to get justice. We trying to make a future world were us having to sacrifice to protect future sufferers is a thing of the past.
While I definitely believe Biden now, more than Tara- I do really hope she gets help. This is not me saying she is "Ha, ha! batshit crazy!" This is me saying Tara has a clear pattern of lying and needs the underlying issue in her life address that is causing her to lie. Yes, I absolutely believe she is suffering some sort of trauma. To me, a bigger part of #MeToo should be not just pursuing justice, but advocating mental and life support for victims. Many of us are way beyond the statue of limitations, yet our pain still needs to be dealt with by society.
