Even if she wishes this and other harm on others?
Yes, even then.
You don't have morals if they're conditioned on the identity of the person they're being applied to. That just makes you a different flavor of bigot.
Nobody deserves to be sexually assaulted, even the people you don't like.
That being said Mace has a history of false claims of attacks on her by others so I am not inclined to believe her since her complaint is that her opponent in a race did not investigate these claims not that these men attacked her.
Sure, but there's a large difference between questioning someone's credibility and approving of them being sexually assaulted.
That is to say there's a large moral difference between "she has a history of making up claims for attention, so I don't believe her" and "she wishes harm on others, so I hope she gets sexually assaulted".
I mean, just on the face of it, it is hypocritical to wish harm on someone because they wish harm on someone. Is wishing harm on someone wrong, or is it not?
Unfortunately, people seem to have no grasp of nuance and just react with the most outrageous takes. In my mind I just assume that these commenters are literally children, who're simply copying bad behaviors and not actual functioning adults with the ability to self-reflect. But, that's more for my own sanity.
