    DEI is nowhere near as serious, a white male will have the advantage in the next job he/we apply for.
    The problem with false accusations being trusted without evidence, is that it can ruin peoples lives.

    I know it’s not the PURPOSE of MeeToo, but I’ve seen this results in many cases. Especially people being fired on mere accusations without evidence. Sometimes on things dating back 10 and 20 years, and sometimes despite the accused had many women he had worked with vouching for him.
    People (managements) probably don’t do this because they are evil, but because they are afraid that if they don’t kick out the “evil” man, they will face a shit-storm of bad PR.
    We had a case here in Denmark, where such a firing of a TV host was based on a lawyer investigation, and after about 10 years in courts, it was final decided by our supreme court that the investigation was flawed and performed contrary to good practices. And the lawyer was later judged in civil court based on this to pay compensation.
    But the man had not been able to find himself a job for 10 years because of that “investigation”. This was a DIRECT result of MeeToo which was revealed both the female management of the TV station and the female lawyer were strongly supporting. If that guy had ever said anything to anyone that could be interpreted wrong, he never stood a chance. Incidentally even the people interviewed who’s comments were used to fire him, claimed they had never dreamt of such consequences. So in this case it was not the women he worked with that made false accusations, it was in fact management and a lawyer that blew it out of proportions, and after being fired, he wasn’t even allowed to know what he had done wrong!!!

    There are a lot of wackos out there, and they are absolutely not all men. Just see for instance Amber Heard.

    Edit, I also edited this post a couple of times for added details.
