The #MeToo movement has become a force to be reckoned with, as allegation after allegation of sexual misconduct topples one high-profile male figure after another.
From big names in Hollywood, Congressmen in Washington, corporate executives, and even a former and a current president, #MeToo has cast an ever-widening net that has ensnared a considerable number of powerful men.
The revival of #MeToo has brought much-needed attention to a problem that has often been marginalized and mostly ignored. The undertaking also sent a clear message to those who would use their power and position for abuse, that such behavior will no longer be tolerated.
As powerful men continue to fall like dominoes aligned in a row, the influence of #MeToo and its far-reaching consequences have become very clear. However, for all its empowerment and good intent, the crusade also harbors a potential dark side.
