I thought the interesting part was here:

In recent weeks, #MeToo in China had roared back to life after authorities tried to crush the movement. It first started on university campuses at the beginning of the year, but discussions were heavily censored. By the summer, however, women began coming forward to speak out against prominent men, including charity organization leaders and journalists. While the movement has resulted in professors being suspended and a charity leader stepping down, Xuecheng’s resignation is especially noteworthy given his connections to Chinese leadership as a member of China’s top political advisory body (link in Chinese).

The Chinese government has tried unsuccessfully to tamp down on the Chinese version of #MeToo.

How unsurprising to find out that the tyranical communist Chinese government agrees with Republicans about the #MeToo movement.

Anyone want to lay odds that radical Islamists also agree with Republicans and communist Chinese that #MeToo is a bad thing?

What?

If anything, Republicans probably welcome #metoo as it has slayed some prominent Democrats and liberals.
