It seems the core issue of your anecdotal case is that the people you see as being victims here are seen as harassers / antagonists by others. So the direction then goes from "don't harass" to "don't engage with people targeting you".

I'm disappointed but unsurprised that this becomes the focus of the conversation rather than the core purpose, which is to prevent harassment generally. Unless you're coming with stats (not anecdotes that are potentially actually about harassers) that show that the claims in the article about who is most targeted for abuse, you're both creating division and distracting from those who are in need of more help, for what?
