Teen Vogue columnist Emily Lindin openly announced, “If some innocent men’s reputations have to take a hit in the process of undoing the patriarchy, that is a price I am absolutely willing to pay.” Lindin also boasted, “I’m actually not at all concerned about innocent men losing their jobs over false sexual assault/harassment allegations.”

False Allegations: New Feminist Tactic to ‘Topple the Patriarchy’?
Coalition to End Domestic Violence
September 17, 2024 – International Falsely Accused Day was observed on September 9, with events held in 12 countries around the world (1). The highlight was an official statement by Victoria Villarruel, Vice President of Argentina.
Villarruel revealed how feminists are promoting the use of false allegations, thereby “breaking the principle of equality before the law, of innocence and defense; destroying the ties of thousands of families, and mainly many parents who can’t see their children.” (2)
Villarruel was certainly aware of the highly publicized allegations against Argentinian soccer coach Diego Guacci, accused of sexual harassment of five female soccer players. In response, Guacci denied all the accusations and provided a list of more than 100 potential witnesses to support his case. In the end, the FIFA Ethics Committee found the charges lacked merit, concluding that “the evidence on file is insufficient to corroborate, to its comfortable satisfaction, the players’ account of the events.” (3)
