One not-insignificant note, though:
Men. Men stopped talking about it. Not "people." Of those who ever talked about it in the first place, women in my orbit continue to speak. https://t.co/oZlKmEXAqS

It's critically important not to casually ignore that women haven't stopped connecting Trump's abusive governance w/ his history of assault.

I desperately don't want us to keep repeating the same mistake of ignoring women's voices on this subject. (Or any other, frankly.)
