A comment on I was sexually assaulted at Equinox and banned for reporting it. Parent comment

Stories about men who've been the victim of sexual assault are often buried and silenced. Please don't try to do that.

It's likely this must be "an unverified medium post" because the media and the authorities often ignore these stories.

Why do you think the parent comment is trying to silence anyone? To me it just seems like they’re providing evidence of a hypocritical attitude here.

I think the comment is trying to silence the story because of the criticisms of the story, like "unverified" and the attempt to minimize the "punishment referred to in the headline".
