It is not just a handful of rotten apples. The enablers are right there in the Twitter quotes.
It isn't enough for the assholes to stop assholin'. We all have the opportunity to contribute positively by moving the norms, and we will all be better for it.
- brighteyes 9y agoThe people that have the ability to fix it are the incredibly brave women coming forward. That's what's changing things. Otherwise, most of us have already been doing all we can. We don't do bad things, and we don't enable people doing bad things. It's ok to admit that we didn't cause this nor have the ability to fix it.
- rectang 9y agoWe're all in this together, and even when it falls to others to lead, we can all contribute in a supporting role. For example, there's lots of victim-blaming in these threads. We have an opportunity to speak up and counter it. In so doing, we support the brave women on the front lines.
