This is a violent, transphobic hate crime and I utterly condemn these men who attacked 21 year old Ruan Filipe in Bournemouth earlier this month.

Anti-trans violence is an anti-trans problem.

What role do you think the constant anti-trans rhetoric of "gender critical" feminists played in this attack? absolutely none, as gender critical feminists didn't do this, men did.

I don't believe the police didn't want to know.

I'm not sure the police are correct here. I thought (have worked in this area) that hate crime could be logged with quite minimal details regarding identity of perpetrators.
It's strange the article doesn't cover that area. The spokesperson seems very pessimistic. The point of logging them isn't only for prosecuting but also to keep accurate statistics and prioritise funding.

This is terrible. The cynic in me would say that the police would have taken it far more seriously if it had been a transwoman.

This is the sort of things trans charities should be campaigning against, people being brutally attacked because of their presentation.
