“Hate crimes reach record high as offences against transgender people double”. Fake news?
( Omina_Sentenziosa )
Hate crimes = misgendering online for these people.
So yeah, I can believe they doubled, because lots of people are just sick and tired of playing pretend and are calling a spade a spade way more than just 2/3 years ago.
( no- )
The article says 41% of the attacks are violent in nature. Who committed those attacks? Most likely men. Who is gonna get blamed? Feminists.

I looked up the stats and don't see how they got 41% violent from those. The stats were,
36% Public order offenses
9% violent with injury
14% violent with no injury
33% Stalking and harassment
3% Criminal damage / Arson
5% Other
By my calculation that is 23% violent at best.
I should also note that only 3% of "hate crimes" against trans resulted in a charge or summons (compared to 8% for race, 9% for sexual orientation, 9% for religion, and 2% for disability) which speaks to their lack of severity.

But "violent" as the gender identity crowd define the term means anything that precious TIPs say makes them feel "invalidated," slightly uncomfortable and not centered.

And violent to them means being told no.
Lesbians saying they don’t do dick= hate crime to trans people.
( DollarstoDonuts )
I mean what constitutes violence in this context. They're calling police on social media comments one would say that's a disproportionate response to something not even a crime, but they probably note the comment down as "violent".

So not actual crimes, then, just feelings hurt. I just wish women's feelings counted for something.

Being offended = offences to these fuckers.

They don't seem to analyse the offender statistics, good to finally see a breakdown. I see they're not using a breakdown for trans, just a broader breakdown.
I can an increase happening and not just online. I've seen a lot of trans out and about nowadays. The Tim's do stick out like a sore thumb. Also they do tend to look for offence so will find it. But yep I can see more stuff being said at them, by idiot blokes.
Pity we can't report such things a women. The whole thing is ridiculous that it excludes women. Not that I'm a fan of it all overall.
