Specifically focusing on this whole Whedon business, what I find irritating on top of all the horrible allegations, when Ray Fisher spoke out about the terrible things Whedon supposedly did, people didn't believe him. He was ridiculed, labelled a cry baby, the validity of his claims were called into question and was deemed a time waster. Now, you have a bunch of certain people coming out after 8 months of a resilient Fisher catching crazy heat from people, now sharing their unfortunate testimonies against Whedon and despite these incidents having taken place circa 20 years ago, no one questions the validity of these allegations and immediately rallied together wanting Whedon's head on a spike.
What these women have experienced is incredibly sad and unfortunate and it's good to see perpetrators, int his case Whedon exposed for their gross misconduct. However, I just find it interesting and ridiculous that someone like Fisher was practically ostracized and essentially fought a 1 man campaign against his victimisers and wasn't afforded nowhere near the same kind of respect and support.
