Thread about abuse of young female activists:
This latest disgusting attack on @GretaThunberg is proof that some people will stop at nothing to try to bring young women down.
This violent misogyny is unacceptable, & unfortunately not rare. It must end.

Adults, do you understand how often it is that young women activists get horrible messages & attacks from grown men?

I don’t like to talk about this but with the recent show of violence against #GretaThurnberg I need to talk about it so we as a society can stop this behavior.
Sometimes I get social media messages by men talking about how they would like to see me and Greta raped & killed.

Sometimes I get messages by men online telling me that I “belong in a concentration camp”, should “go die” or that “H*tler missed a Jew.”
Other times grown men will try to hit on me or send me sexually explicit messages. Other times they call me slurs.
This behavior must stop!

#Enoughisenough of adults lashing out violently at young women simply trying to use our voices to better the world.
Enough is enough of men not-so-subtly reminding girls that if we stand up for justice, we will face violent concequences.
We must stop normalizing that behavior!
