Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
(article quote spoilered for transphobia)
"He said I was trying to get him fired and that he was going to call the cops," she recounted. "I said, ‘Call the cops! I just want my money back.’ Then I heard him call me a transvestite. I’m like, ‘Transvestite? I’m a whole female. I have lady parts.'"
i dunno what to think of the victims of transphobic violence not only not being trans, but also being actively transphobic themselves - it's an extremely weird situation out there
Yeah the use of "transvestite" was very telling here.
Regardless, when Adams went back to the grocery and called for police from there, it took officers four hours to show up, she said.
NYPD budget: 10 billion dollars
Hey, candy crush isn't going to play itself! Our boys in blue are doing their part in keeping the American economy afloat.
They can always tell.
Another case-study in why cis-gender people should have solidarity with trans-people, if only out of self-preservation. The transphobes are fucking crazy.
yea but also let's be honest it's because she was Black
nobody'd ever lay a finger on a mannish white TERF
The anti-trans hysteria is terrifying.
I've noticed people that are anti-trans are obsessed about it, it's like they think about it constantly, no wonder these fascist pigs act out like this with increasing frequency.
Just your daily reminder that even if you're a piece of shit terf that hates trans woman, that your bigotry hurts cis women too.
You can't be a terf and call yourself a feminist. Terfs hate all women with their actions.
Terf isn't enough of a slur.
terfs get really mad being called terfs and that's good enough for me
There's also the extremely fucked up racist dimension to this where people tend to assume cis black women are trans 
They totally just want to protect women, though
