Today, a young trans man died in Germany. He was beaten to death after courageously defending two women, who were being attacked homophobically. To all journalists and politicians, who have peddled the anti-trans moral panic: you engaged in stochastic terrorism. This is on you.
You can already watch German TERFs defending the murder, or claiming that it wasn't actually violence against a trans person because the trans man defended lesbians. It's beyond disgusting. This is the "Schulterschluss" with fascists you've read about.
And, of course: "Let's not instrumentalise the death of this young man by speaking about what killed him" say TERFs. Transphobia killed him. #Transfeindlichkeittötet
And, another one from transphobes: deadnaming Malte even in death, claiming the he wasn’t “a real man but actually a woman” so his murder is “actually violence against women” just disgusting. Vile, disgusting stuff.
