I think what you're missing is that a tiny minority of toxic users (as perceived from your viewpoint) can easily be perceived as a high concentration of harassment from those that are on the receiving end of abuse

I didn't miss it - that was partly my point; the the quantity of abuse is possibly a matter of perception which will necessarily be very influenced by the psychology and experiences of the victim; I agree that without being in that position it's not possible to have the same viewpoint, and certainly not the same raw hurt and related experiences. But it doesn't follow from being on the receiving end that there is a clearer, more neutral view of the percentages.
