Perpetrators SHOULD be exposed, but keep in mind the experience of victims who need support and love, and that social media posts/debates where the truth is being "debated", do not help victims. BELIEVE VICTIMS” -Sarah Deer.

Any post you make, even well-intentioned, can end up harming victims as the posts attract people who will defend abusers and victim-blame. I recommend avoiding debating with people online who defend these perpetrators.

Please keep in mind, charges are the very beginning stages of a very long and traumatic road for victims who DO READ social media and are always concerned about telling THEIR truth.
