It's so hard to talk about something like this objectively because momentum of the mob towards the popular discourse makes it almost impossible to detach.

The woman does not say she was raped or anything happened to her without her consent (unless I missed that in which case I apologize and retract this comment, but I couldn't find it).

The person currently being cancelled was a "community leader" (apparently) but was not her boss, teacher, or in official power over her. It sounds like he is a creep who manipulates women to be with him. What specifically did he do differently from any other guy who tries to "woo" a woman?

These women consented to be with him at the time for the perceived benefits of being close to the community leader and what comes with it. They are adult women who made decisions. Now they want to retrospectively apply alternative morals to their actions at the time because they wish they didn't do that.

You did this, it didn't happen to you.
