Taking everything and their dog as "harassment", without due process to
verify it, and issuing punishments one can't appeal based on that, creates
a feeling of fear and insecurity in the events; and provides a tool easy to
abuse by clever persons who understood how to game the system, as a vehicle
for severe harassment itself.
This creates an unsafe and unfriendly space in the events,and should really
be looked at.

First of all I don’t know the context of this
conversation. I know that I
personnally find that the actions of Trust& Safety very valuable and
wise. I totally support and trust their judgement.
I am tired of seing their work criticized, and do not appreciate official
chapter representants and employees publicly supporting alleged offenders,
showing no aknowledgement of the fact that this is very toxic for alleged
victims, and does not help to change attitude towards issues of
harrassment.
How can we feel safe in the movement if the decisions of T&S are
questionned by official members of our movement?

If you're wondering why women leave the Wikimedia movement, and why
Wikimedia has such a bad harassment problem in general, just reflect on
this thread.
Thank you, Molly, for expressing what I was just trying to summon the
energy to write.
