There may be some of that going on, but the abuse by the powerful without any real recourse has been one of the ugliest grimes on humanity. It's everywhere. Schools, government, theatre, sport... It would take courage to speak out - most people don't want others to know they have been abused, it's humiliating (even though it shouldn't be). I applaud it. If anyone abuses that power through false accusations, it is in itself a form of abuse of power.
