I expressed no view that I had any issue with denouncing harassment.
Without context I'm at a bit of a loss as to what exactly it all
means, but I am certainly not okay with harassment.

I am upset that you thought it appropriate to accuse me (or people I
associate with) of being okay with harassment, simply because I asked
for a clarification that this new (?) intolerance of harassment didn't
extend to undermining prior values.

The statement of support was vague-- how would things change? how was
harassment tolerated before? What can I do to help? etc., no doubt
justifiably in the interest of not exacerbating the problems.

Some people read it as saying that it meant things I was sure it
didn't mean. It was very helpful to get a clarification to help put
people at ease.
