Yes, and insofar as feminists continue to use this reasoning, we should reduce our support. It may seem like a sad case of a few bad actors poisoning the well, but the lack of outcry by other feminists implies, to me, that the movement has gone rotten, no matter how I wish it weren't so. If you keep poking your allies in the eye, you can't expect them to remain allies for long!
