It's devoid of context, but it could just be talking about the people who only just now have begun believing despite the voices of the victims.
The post makes it seem like this was a typical perspective, though. I get that womens' voices are generally not taken seriously enough when it comes to this kind of thing, but if there were one exception to this rule then Epstein seemed to be it because in my experience everyone considered him to be a dirtbag even before the files were released. Have I just been unwittingly sheltered when it comes to peoples' views on Epstein? (Genuine question.)
I wouldn't call it unwittingly sheltered. More like programed by right-wing media to never trust the victim when women step forward.
That is a peculiar thing to say about me.
I'm sorry I misread your comment. I thought it was speaking generally not you specific. That comment was directed towards the people who are just now coming around and or the ones who are still stubbornly refusing to see the reason.
