Thank you! I wasn't intending to argue that this sort of thing doesn't matter at all. I think it's mad fucked up that his life was ruined (though I hope he's been able to rebuild since then), and I think he deserves all the support (mental, financial, social), in the world, but I am suspect of the timing of this/the motivation behind bringing it back up in today's current climate when it wasn't prefaced with a "So, how can we do better to combat this sort of thing, alleviate the fears of people, and still support victims?" Like, it wasn't brought up in a conversational sense at all, and that's what feels odd about it all.
