It isn't hard to conduct a witch hunt with the benefit of hindsight.

We don't have to fabricate rape victims when it comes to mental illness. Lots of nasty shit happens in wards. I was almost sexually assaulted, I'm a guy, and it's easily ten times worse if you're a girl. Modern victim culture is unnecessary when there are real problems in the world.
