...and crying No True Scotsman doesn't absolve the movement of that. Plus, I've seen those stats, & read the full report, & they're woefully misrepresented. I'm curious, though - can I ask why you reacted by going for stats instead of believing all the people who were harassed?

I mean, if we're talking first-person anecdotal, I saw it happen too. From where I was standing it was about journalistic integrity for, mm, about 3 days, then the vultures- Cernovich, Yiannopolous, and the like -started moving in + coopted it. How'd we see such different things?
