Trans rights propagandists 100% are aware that gender-critical feminists have never committed a violent act against a transwoman.

When they blame us for actual violence, they do so only to passively send the message that violence against us would be justified as self-defense.

The “actual violence” message isn’t a misunderstanding or immature demonization. It’s a folded-in message that people are “saving the lives of transgender women” by hunting and harming feminists who oppose their ideology.

They’re deputizing lone wolves.

And they’re doing it so loudly and openly that no GC woman hasn’t heard them do it. Every one of us regularly hears them tell a world full of angry men that WE are a righteous female target.

Hurting women, once a guilty compulsion for them, is implied to be an act of heroism.

I share extreme news stories about trans “women.” I share the stories about the ones who rape children and attack random strangers with an axe (I s**t you not; Google it). People tell me I’m fear-mongering. But my own fear is not an act, because these are the men being set on me.

They haven’t just been given unprecedented access across our boundaries. They’re also being taught that, if they strike, their bad acts will be considered justified and praised within their communities.

No one stands up and clearly condemn those criminals and extremists.

In a culture where even the violent and insane are offered solidarity and validation, it is ENTIRELY REASONABLE for me to be concerned about the people at the extreme end of bad behavior. THOSE are the people being psychologically groomed to attack us.

A community WILL call out one of its members who offends its own true internal values (which are often different than its professed values). But that doesn’t happen in the wake of news like, say, the rat nailed to the door of the rape crisis center.

Every movement has extremists, black sheep who are constantly, publicly at odds with movement leadership. Movements who honestly disapprove of the actions of a member DISTANCE THEMSELVES from those members.

The trans movement HAS distanced itself from a lot of trans people, but only the ones who call for restraint.

The message of the trans rights movement has consistently supported the idea that committing violence against gender-critical women is less of a sin than being a gender-critical woman.

That’s extremely dangerous.
