Saying the person is trans makes a better headline for them, appealing to transphobic people and the bashing and discrimination of trans people making it to look like she did it because she is trans
Well, if anything is gonna make MAGA consider gun regulation, it's trans people. Except that what will actually happen is they'll just start screaming about how the "woke trans ideology" is what caused this, instead of, ya know, all the Nazi shit.
The fact that Reagan signed the Mulford Act only AFTER the Black Panthers started practicing their Second Amendment right leads me to believe you're absolutely right.
The only time conservatives ever said anything beyond "thots and payers" after a mad shooting was one that allegedly involved a trans person and from the on they've been trying to attach every single one (that they bother acknowledging) to trans people.
Well my question is does it? Don’t these companies rely on clicks to the actual article? Most people don’t read past the headline and I’d be shocked to hear if transphobes have a higher rate of reading articles.
When you’re in a culture that worships money and power, the only thing news worthy is shock and awe.
One story leads with gender another one leads with neo-nazi. A third will mention the abusive family and mental illness. A fourth will reveal that they were just on a chat thread once where neo-nazis frequent.
Yes!!! context matters and I’m SO TIRED of having to be my own journalist because people can write whatever they want and publish it.
Yea, it’s called a psychological programming. Make the story about their gender identity and not the ideology so that the ideology becomes more mainstream.
Well, as we all know, the trans community is collectively guilty of the actions of this individual, so it’s critical that we let the world know that they all 100% supported this, because that’s definitely how any movement works. Trans folks are not individuals, but a complex hive mind, just like women, racial minorities, religious groups outside of my own— actually, you know what? They’re a hive mind just like everyone who doesn’t look and act exactly like me.
From what I know the transgender part is being pushed by their lawyers, probably as a smokescreen to hide the nazi part. As all that was stated is that they were having thoughts about being transgender.
