    There’s a lot of hate in the UK at the moment makes me sick to be here, people are getting worse after the new judgement trying to stop trans people from using the loo. It’s just emboldened the worse of us.

    No one deserves this. Please protect your trans neighbours people.

    I’m at a loss for words!?
    These people are doing this just out of hate! How can anyone hate someone so much, when she never did anything to them?
    Something is seriously wrong with such people, and unfortunately they are many.

    I hope they are found and they go to jail. But with people like that being so common, I’m not sure humanity will make it. I’m not so sure we even deserve to make it as a species. We are just too destructive for our own good.

      How can anyone hate someone so much, when she never did anything to them?

      Imagine that your life is terrible. You’re poor, desperate, maybe ill too. You live with your parents who are also poor and desperate, and the lot of you self medicate with copious amounts of alcohol.

      You’re miserable, and not terribly bright. Then one day, your primary media sources and even the governing political party starts parroting the same lie that the reason your life if shit is because trans people and immigrants exist. No one with a similarly large platform is telling you the truth.

      Now consider how many millions of purple have been abandoned by the state in this country. How many poor and desperate people we’ve made in the last 10 years and the incentive the owning class has in laying the blame for that at the feet of anyone but themselves.

      Hate is learnt, and the teachers are holding all the money & power.

      Oh but they are, she did do something wrong (in their twisted minds): gender traitor

      They aren’t being the men they were "born to be’.

      Note how most anti-trans people couldn’t give two shits about women transitioning to men, it’s virtually always an issue of men transitioning to women. They are either doing it to get a competitive advantage in sports (an unimaginable minority, and even still, not a great track record), or “abandoning” masculinity.

      • “Why would you cut off your dick just to do X, Y, Z?”
      • Almost all of the vitriol towards gay rights was towards men (because hey, watching 2 girls kiss is sexy).
      • The men who cover their face when shocked? Too “feminine”.
      • The current manosphere with direct ties to the president.
      • General hate, disdain, or control over women: “Your body, by choice. Forever.”

      They hate women, and if you change from man to woman, you aren’t human in their eyes.

      Yes something is wrong with people attacking others without provocation, however just because they are loud doesn’t mean that they are the majority.

      I hope they are found and they go to jail.

      Absolutely, I hope they did something dumb like grabbing something containing an airtag or so, people like this deserve way worse than whatever punishment they will get.

      But with people like that being so common, I’m not sure humanity will make it,

      Will make it?

      What do you mean by that?

      I’m not so sure we even deserve to make it as a species.

      Humans are a species, that is not up for debate.

        I never claimed they are a majority, but they don’t have to be to ruin things.
        Will make it as in survive. We are destroying the earth, and a country like USA is not participating in solving the problem, despite being the richest country in the world, and a major contributor to the problem.
        A clear sign of sociopathy on a national scale, a sociopathy that equals the 2 attackers in the alley.

        I have no clue how this meaning wasn’t obvious?

          Any real chance of survival on a galactic timescale has never really been an option.

          Your comment was about a horrible attack on a transwoman, and you somehow turned that into an argument about the human species survival?

          That is a huge leap in logic!

          The attack was perpetrated by reprehensible pieces of shit, absolutely, but it does not affect humanity’s possible future survival as a species.

    Mate, this is just sad :(

    Wishing her the best! (I have no clue who she is, though. But it doesn’t matter. My wish stands)

    As for the other “fellers”, I shall make no such wish

    Edit: this also applies to each and every similar situation. Doesn’t matter the victim or the perpetrators. All the best to trans people, and no such thing for the phobes

    Chumbawumba’s song “homophobia” remains relevant though it’s largely evolved to be transphobia

    I wish that woman healing and safety

    That’s absolutely vile and disgusting. Hopefully the offenders are caught and don’t get off lightly
