It isn’t about supporting women or men, rapists or false accusers. It’s about being strongly in favour of due process, and not calling people names for it. Otherwise the entire justice system can be accused of simplistic, emotional claims of misogyny.

That's quite a basic, uncomplicated perspective. I'm not disregarding due process.
It becomes complicated due to the likelihood of it being true (very high [6% false accusations]), vs the likelihood of the complaint being formalized, going to court, and a guilty verdict found (very low [10%]).
