So normalised

I hope these violent threats against women who believe sex remains relevant – made openly at yesterday’s Trans Pride – are something everyone would condemn regardless of their stance on sex and gender. Can you imagine the outrage if this was said about any other protected group? https://t.co/PRYDbysmyP

But of course they’re absolutely not something everyone would condemn regardless of sex/gender views. We’ve already seen that Labour MP Clive Lewis brushes them off with the ridiculous lie that radical feminists also call for punching trans people in the face.

I think institutions on the opposing side of the debate have a particular responsibility to call this out. Charities like @stonewalluk. I wonder if they will, or whether they will simply let it go?

Of course they won’t. Stonewall thinks we deserve to be punched in the face.

It is indeed so depressing.
