You're arguing different things here. They're saying that we have to question allegations, you're saying that we have to take them seriously. The way we should take them seriously is to investigate them, which means questioning both sides of the story.
We will probably never make a perfect system, but we can't leave large vulnerabilities that are easily gamed or they will be. We should investigate all of these accusations and shut down operations like NXIVM. We need to seriously look at allegations by Juanita Broderick and co. But we can't believe either side until we actually investigate the evidence.
If anything, we need to do what we can to make it safer for victims to come out earlier while there's still enough evidence to investigate and to take the allegations seriously enough so that they don't remain obscured for decades, or there will be nothing left to investigate when the allegation is finally made public.
