People are always going to misinterpret something as shortform as a hashtag. I think there’s a larger conversation to be had about their use in spaces like politics, but I’d hardly say that makes one instance of their use irresponsible to the level you’re implying. Especially when you consider the fact that “women often make false accusations” is absolutely a red-herring used to try and delegitimise accusers again, and again, and again. The most prominent example from recent memory that comes to my mind, within politics, being the way Christine Blasey Ford’s accusations against Brett Kavanaugh were treated.

Have a nice night though 💜😊
