He didn’t, where did you get that? He did have a part in the origin of “#GamerGate” in that he’s often cited as the first use of the hashtag when sharing a few videos talking about the original ‘thezoepost’ blog post. He’s mostly just kind of a huge asshole based on the things he has posted or said publicly but he’s never been associated or accused of any substantive abuses AFAIK.
Except that isn’t the case at all. Whedon has been accused of being inappropriate, verbally abusive, and creating toxic work environments. Weinstein has been convicted of sexual assault and charged with multiple rapes. None of this is said in defense of these monsters but equating them to the same level of abuse is simply factually incorrect.

That is my point, meanwhile Joss Wheaton is accused of Harvey Winestein style abuse.
Not really, more like Ari Gold style abuse.
