Mitch believes that there are two types of men affected by Me Too, one is the person who committed the sex crime, and the other is him. So he was angry at the accusations he got. He felt that he had never forced any women to engage in extramarital affairs without breaking the law. Some women even got promoted because they slept with him. But in the end, he became the only one who had to pay for it.
Is he qualified to be angry? maybe. Was he a victim of Me Too's overcorrection? Pooh!
We have reason to believe that if it were not forced, he would never review his behavior. In fact, even if the matter was exposed, he had not really reflected on his behavior. In his logic, the women who slept with him were voluntary and enjoyed the same as him.
If he wasn't so arrogant that only his charming self was left in his eyes, when Ashley was on the show, he should have noticed how different he felt from those women. Only the other party enjoys those sexual acts, and the women do not enjoy being fucked by him as he thinks.
But he admired himself too much. He felt that Hannah used to sleep with him to get the promotion, and he didn't feel that he was using Hannah to refresh herself. He didn’t even notice that Hannah froze when he was kissed, because he felt that he was the fucking center of the world. Every beautiful woman who accepted an invitation to watch a comedy in his room must be waiting and He went to bed! Liu Qiangdong must also feel that all the girls around him are lining up waiting for him to sleep!
He never thought about all the pain Ashley, Mia, Hannah and other women suffered because of him. Like every power-supremacist, he only cares about himself and his own power, and people who are in the same or higher power class with him. Others, who cares? It wasn't until Hannah died that Chip beat him up. He seemed to understand that things weren't what he understood, but it was very likely that his confession would be nothing more than that. After all, people at the top of power are always good at making themselves feel good, and ignoring others’ harm is the easiest way.
Are there any innocent men framed because of Me Too? Maybe there is. When Alex and Mitch fell apart and planned to explain their divorce by using the fact that they had been in bed, it was difficult to say, but it was possible that this was a framing behavior for interests.
But even if Mitch lost his fame, status, and marriage, he would never be a victim of self-righteousness. He just paid the price for the wrong things he did, and these couldn't make up for the women who were unable to get out of the long-term suffering.
Has Me Too overcorrected? Yanko's response may answer this question. Also as a higher-status, older, and attractive male anchor, he suddenly asked when he was having sex with his younger colleague and girlfriend Claire, "Have I done what Mitch did to you?" Mitch never asked women, because he never cared about each other's feelings like Yanko. In his eyes, it's all you want if you don't get a clear rejection or fierce resistance. He should know now, and should not continue without a positive response.
Of course, this world should not be "you are weak, you are reasonable", but this world should never be completely controlled by those in power, who have already mastered too many resources and right to speak. If there is no such huge price as Me Too to force the perpetrators (or potential perpetrators) to slightly restrain their actions, the abuse of power will only intensify. Liu Qiangdong and Yamaguchi Keizhi will become more and more, and the weak will have more and more opportunities to speak up. The less, and the world we live in will undoubtedly decay and collapse all the way.
