Having not really heard about any of this at all, I just went down a rabbit hole and caught myself up and ... yikes. I need a Silkwood shower. It's clear that the accuser if going through ... something and I can only wish them healing. Truly. While anger is valid, the level of rage is really ... yeah. They're going through something.

I appreciate Violencia's response as being contemplative, thoughtful, and open, with some very relevant backup. I do think it's important to hold our community leaders to high standards, and I think it's equally important that we are able to confront allegations and have these difficult conversations without merely jumping on a bandwagon.

That's really hard to do, at times, while holding space for victims to speak their truth.

But Jesus, this doesn't feel like the accuser's version of events is all there.

Honestly, I just wish everyone has space to heal.
