Yes, and that's why we have libel laws: to stop these kinds of things from being "judged" in the court of public opinion. Raising awareness and providing support are all fine and very necessary, but the extrajudicial punishments is where the movement lost my support. Still, extrajudicial punishment is what we're left with if the judicial system fails to do justice.

Why did the movement lose your support? It didn't advocate removal of libel laws, did it?

And "extrajudicial punishment" is a stretch for "I have a right to tell people what happened to me without shame and harrasment".

Did #metoo make a call to burn people at stakes that I missed?

You're kidding, right? You think that all of the things listed below are instances of "I have a right to tell people what happened to me without shame and harrasment", and none are instances of virtual stake burning? Note: this is the result of just five minutes of keyword searches, I have no opinion on the actual merits of these cases, just disproving your claim that there is no extrajudicial punishment associated with the movement:

The things you listed look like a random collection of things that happened where there was some controversy.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say, looks like you attribute all scandals to #metoo agenda.
