In no way discounting her experience, but it's almost like she's a woman and not a man and she sees things from the woman's perspective.
It's a cruel reality, and without having to do a battle of the sexes comparison, everybody gets this bullshit, regardless of gender identity or sex.
Ever been a man and walked into a woman's online space and see the bullshit that goes on there, the horrible accusations, derogatory dialogue? Ever been falsely accused of sexual impropriety by a woman who's just looking to hold power?
People are assholes, and when you go on a platform filled with assholes, they're going to be assholes. Solution, stop going to those places and live in the real world.
I might be wrong but it just seems like you stopped short of saying “not all men”. Did you forget that bit?
I would encourage you to read what is said and try to understand it, versus taking this tired, feeble, accusatory approach.
