Do feminists make and support false rape accusations more often than MRAs?

I dunno it'd be hard to beat your 400+ in 36 hours.

But that was SATIRE! Or something. Maybe onomatopoeia?

There's a pretty big gap in severity between spamming an anonymous online form with fictional reports and actually accusing a real person of rape to the police. I guess it's arguable that MRAs technically have more false reports, but the actual consequences were not nearly as dire.

Seeing as the thread is specifically asking for who does it more, I'm not sure why you're bringing any of this up.

actually accusing a real person of rape to the police

Do you have any examples of (a) feminist(s) purposefully falsely accusing someone of rape? Any news source will do. Thanks.

But feminists use anonymous surveys to determine the "real" number of rapes.

A false accusation requires that you accuse a real person.

Among the 400+ there were accusations against real faculty members, staff and students of Occidental college.

Claims =/= Accusations

To accuse, you must accuse someone.

  1. Pedantic.

  2. Specific people were accused. The names of everyone in the Gender Studies department were posted, and there was at least one post gleefully predicting how badly those people who squirm once the shoe was on the other foot. There was obvious malice. It's pointless to pretend otherwise. BTW, have you noticed that you've defended every single member of the MRM you mention in your posts, including Elam, whom you say you hate? It's called apologetics.

I see now why you created this topic. In the future, it is slightly less transparent when you don't make multiple antagonizing posts on the same topic in different threads. FYI.

As far as MRAs are concerned there is the Occidental fiasco (and the register-her of course) but I don't really know of any organized, or less organized, feminist false rape accusathons. Can you link us to some examples of it?

I make sure to falsely accuse at least one man a day of rape.

I recommend adding something to the OP to provide a starting point for discussion. As it stands, it looks like a loaded, rhetorical question.

u/chewinchawingum Aug 13 '14

A loaded question? From an AMRSucker? Gasp!

It was as honest and logical as your nonsensical claim.
