When sexual abuse victims are traumatized by the events they endured and can't talk about it they don't go screaming it to the world so your argument is invalid in this case.
Sorry, simply for clarity, you're aware she spoke out anonymously right? She isn't "screaming it to the world." She made a single post on twitter, then quietly disappeared, at least to us as the public. I'm not sure anyone would use your idiom that way to describe this situation. Like it's almost the exact opposite where, if she was raped, she is too quiet to even make a peep except an anonymous post that she said took years to find the courage for.

Perhaps she decided to speak out anonymously because sadly she felt that this was the only way she could be fully transparent without receiving harassment and retaliation.
