I'm guessing he means that she was strongly encouraged to reinterpret what happened as rape by the feminist culture in order to provide yet another high profile victim and a set of high profile perpetrators to the ongoing feminist machine.
Sigh. Is feminism back? I know it's a bit "boo outgroup", but I really honestly and truly did really enjoy the past couple of years. I felt much less on edge, no longer walking on eggshells all the time, and like we could all mutually start to look at reality and see the same thing again, laugh at jokes about sex, appreciate scantily dressed women, understand that the sexes actually do behave differently from one another for reasons other than "privilege".
At any rate, the only thing that actually matters to me in this case is the question of: did they specifically give her ketamine beyond what she actually "wanted"? I suppose a secondary question may then be: if they did, did they do that maliciously or unknowingly?
I'm afraid I haven't heard too much discussion about the question of the ketamine on the Motte so far, it's been more about the social mores of having sex, and whether she was lying about not wanting to have sex. But to me, the only thing that really determines whether I think any actual wrongdoing took place is whether she deliberately took the drugs or not. I suppose we will never really know - she probably doesn't even remember whether she actually wanted to take that ketamine at the time. And the whole world has now decided that "no, she didn't want the ketamine and it was forcibly given to her to make her have sex against her will".
Like others have alluded to, these are already starting to be replaced. "Influencers", a job which doesn't even make sense to me to begin with, are now entirely generatable. The other day, I was on a drummer Facebook group, and someone posted about "see this photo featuring this cute twenty-something drummer chick? She doesn't actually exist."
