There's disagreeing and then there's attempting to smear anyone who thinks that there's a discussion to be had with accusations of victim blaming, etc., when there is no evidence at all of victim blaming and in fact multiple (repeatedly ignored) examples of everyone agreeing that what the attacker did was completely wrong.

Its a debate and discussion forum, if people want to just say "oh god this is awful!" and leave it at that, that's fine, but attempting to insist that other people "shouldn't" believe there's further discussion / debate to be had, or that wanting to discuss it further and not just accepting it as "JUST BAD END OF STORY" is somehow a bad person / doesn't care about victims of assault / blatantly implying misogyny... Well... I wouldn't say that's particularly healthy on a debate forum.
