"Believe all women!"

"Believe all victims!"

"...unless the abuser is a person that I like then I must rush to defend them because the victims are lying and we need to see all the evidence"

It's like the classic SA apologists but repackaged.

Except I'm not defending anyone, I'm not a Lizzo fan, and I've never used the slogan "believe all women" in my life.

In fact someone upthread basically had to explain to me what it means just now.

Are you really likening me to a sexual abuse apologist because I said I was waiting for more information to make a judgment on allegations about some stranger on the other side of the world?

I know it's an emotive topic, but yikes, cool your jets.
