I've been made not to believe anybody. Until she names people, accuses people, and files a lawsuit against someone, I don't care.

I'm starting to believe that #metoo, and #timesup are an experiment on social influence, and actors are being actors, playing a role to help shape public opinion. Constantly bombarding people with small tales of abuse (a subject people don't ask for more details about) until we become so used to it, that sexual abuse becomes normal. Then when someone really is sexually abused, it's easier to sweep under the rug because the public is already accustomed to stories of abuse.

I know it's a dark way of looking at things, but the last year has shown me that it's easy to get actors to play any role, on or off camera. Start proceedings to put the offender in jail. I'm not giving you pity points so that you can stay relevant with the latest trending topic.

This is precisely what will enable these crimes. She probably can't file a lawsuit anymore due to the statute of limitations.

Today, I overheard an old man (age 75-80?) reading a text from his mobile to his wife. I was stunned and could hardly believe it.

It was a text about an actress who had been sexually abused and now spoken up - Twitter was mentioned, but since he was already in mid-text when I heard him, I didn't catch the name.

His wife patiently listened. It was very touching.

I looked at Bella Thornes instagram and the responses, and I got the impression that she - like other celebrities who have spoken up, are an inspiration to other survivors.

The same applies to the #metoo campaign. It's not only about some Hollywood celebs, but many women - and, to a lesser extent, some men - suddenly started talking about harrassment.

So I don't care whether there's been something orchestrated behind the scenes, as long as it helps survivors, and instigates ordinary folks to talk about these issues.

What if this " Me Too " is to draw your eyes and ears from Hollywood's Pedophilles?

I don't know what the intention is or was. I can see that it backfired. I observe how pple IRL react, and I've never seen so many newspaper articles at least hinting at a pedophilia problem in Hollywood. It makes it much easier now to talk about pedophilia in Hollywood IRL as well as on the internet.
