i saw this on twitter, it’s a trade union member on a picket line being surrounded, screamed at and intimidated so badly that police had to escort her away for her own protection. Seems her crime is that she has some gender identity views they don't like. Along with the recent video of Julie Bindel being stopped and blocked by masked activists - are women fair game now as long as you shout TERF at them? Alsi it seems a San Fransisco library is currently showing an exhibition of violent threats (art) from Transactivists towards “terfs” and “cis scum”. Aibu to be angry that threats, intimidation and actual aggression and violence to women is just being overlooked if not outright condoned?

YANBU, misogyny and aggression towards women is rife and unchecked lately. Dressed up as 'anti-transphobia' to make it palatable.

YANBU.
At the Oxford Women's Place meeting, police had to escort a mother and baby as they were threatened.

The San Francisco library exhibit sounds pretty reasonable here;

Hang on, was that Tara Wolf in that video? At the beginning of it, kind of lunging towards the camera? The TRA that punched Maria MacLachlan

Yup, that's Tara.

Well the Toronto guy is not being labelled a terrorist or a threat. He's a mra who wants women dead. So I guess Canada is with the idea you can take it out on women if you're pissed off.
Misogyny just won't go away.

Of course yanbu. This has got to stop.
