Sexual harassment

[Penthea]

Point I am trying to make is people lie, please do not misunderstand what I was trying to say. If something can factually be proven sure witch hunt away, but let us be real how many people honestly would be willing to wait for all the facts to come out before starting the witch hunt? As someone else mentioned someone should be viewed as innocent until proven guilty however, in this day and age it seems to be the other way around.

You need to read the article. There are numerous screenshots proving the ex TMP editor was admitting to his abusive behaviour and that he is talented at targeting women who can be preyed upon. Furthermore when he stepped down as editor he gave TMP social media logins only to those who allied with him, and he is now demanding his position be returned.

Yes people do lie but the amount of accusations is shocking. They can't all be lying, that's ridiculous. What do they have to gain from lying? Get control over TMP? Well there's no guarantee that the old editor wouldn't have just dissolved it instead of handing over control, or replace all the staff who tried to stand against him. If they really wanted TMP they could have just left in a mass exodus and made their own magazine instead. The most likely reason for revealing his abuse is that all the victims were horrified to find out that he has been engaging in this behaviour for years and want to break the cycle for good.

Even being anonymous it's not easy to come out as a victim. Victim blaming is very real and you only need to look at this thread to see how common it is. Bad enough to be a victim and then have people trying to shame you for being stupid. I really hope they're not reading this thread because some truly horrific statements have been made about them.
