You would think that a liar as thoroughly exposed as Emma Sulkowicz would have nowhere to turn to anymore. However, long after being discredited, large media organizations continued to push her, including the likes of Jezebel. Recently, the so-called "HealMeToo Festival", apparently organized by Sing, has invited Mattress Girl to speak and regurgitate more of her delusions.

Nowadays, a man can have his career ended and be ostracized on the mere allegation of sexual misconduct. On the other hand, if you are a sadistic piece of shit like Emma, you can ruin a man's life, be given a platform for it, be called "one of New York's most powerful women", invited by Kirsten Gillibrand, and nobody even offers an apology after. It's a bizarre, twisted, and sadistic culture that allows this.

Why is there no cancel mod coming for her? Who is calling up her employer? Who is intimidating organizers into backing down from hosting her?

As long as we don't care about this double standard, none of this will change. It's a sadistic, unhinged culture that allows this. Personality disordered people who proclaim themselves victims are now running the show. These people are seriously fucked in the head.

What these people have in common is that the bask in victimhood. Even after one of those liars gets exposed, we have been trained to respond with exclamations of "This will make it even harder for REAL victims!", as if some hypothetical person was more important than the one actually just having had his life ruined. The actual concern here appears to be that the real tragedy is that facts of an event might diminish some of the gullibility that we have been trained into. Fuck the guy who was called a rapist in the media! What we should really lament is that we might be less receptive to an innocent man having his name dragged through the mud in the future.

A major reason why it has become so easy to be a professional victim nowadays and why so much damage can be done to innocent people is that we have grown used to lying and euphemisms. Most of the tools that are supposed to help victims are actually weapons in disguise. They are not shields, they are swords. When you pay attention you see that they are not defensive but offensive tools, means by which you can legally harass and haunt a person for the rest of their lives. If their aim was to protect victims, they would give them protective tools. They would not be means by which you can extract money from an ex long after you are safely apart, they would not be ways in which you can slander someone's name from the cover of anonymity, they would not be tools with which you can ruin someone's life, as opposed to protecting yourself.

We can virtually run Nobel laureates like Tim Hunt out of the country for a joke we do not like. But make false rape allegations and you will forever be the hero of personality disordered nut bags who have endless resources through women's organizations and other groups that funnel them money.

Who are these organizations that enable these nutcases to thrive? National Organization for Women, Ultra Violet, Supermajority. Every country now has those "women's organizations" which typically are just sexist organizations with a good portion of misandry, man hate. They do not work for women, they work against men. Women's biggest weapon in society is their claim of victimhood. These are not people who work for equality, they are disgusting, unhinged lunatics. They work by highlighting every adversity of women, every privilege of men, and ignoring the reverse. We all know how horrible it was that women only obtained universal voting rights a couple of decades after men (whose equal lack of universal voting rights we usually overlook) but we have accepted it as completely normal that young men's lives should have been routinely sacrificed to protect family and country or in dangerous occupations.

In short, the basic premise of most of those organizations is deeply misandrist and it should surprise nobody that a false cause attracts equally false and deceitful people.
