Right. Signing off twitter for this evening. A few hours ago, I tweeted about the case of a woman who has clearly transphobic views losing her employment tribunal case. And OMFG.
I thought that political twitter was a bit of a sewer, but seriously, my timeline got taken over by a twarmy of transphobes and bigots.
I have never been on the receiving end of such abuse, even when I very publicly stood against the most extremes of our politics.
All it has done is simply reinforce my view that trans people are one of the most discriminated, and victimised groups in society. They are one of the few groups in society (or only?) against which educated people think it is OK to be openly prejudiced.
I think some people on here really need to think hard about whether they can be seriously claiming to stand up for the underprivileged whilst at the same time spouting off of the most vile, hate filled venom against an extremely marginalised group of people.
