Thank you for this much-needed perspective. The backlash to MeToo has shown how deeply misogyny is entrenched in society. It makes us doubt the women who come forward and protect the men. It’s infuriating to me. (Another obvious example is Trump.)
It's fascinating to think of the double meaning of the word "coverage" when it comes to the media and stories of wealthy men having their way over others with impunity. People love to watch it, so the media exposes it and then paves it over, in preparation for the next installment.
Thanks for this excellent essay. I have been making the same point for a while, but neither as eloquently nor with such excellent receipts.
