Did anyone see this?

Goes to show how far people will go to deflect accusations of transphobia:

"After being dropped by her agency for transphobic comments, model Carissa Pinkston — who has appeared in Savage x FENTY ads — pretended she was a trans woman herself so as to avoid being called out for her transphobia.

The model wrote in multiple since-deleted Facebook posts from May, under the name Rissa Danielle, that trans women were not women. Social media users who were able to find the receipts and have been witness to Pinkston's transphobia have also said that on Instagram Live videos, she went as far as likening trans women to pedophiles. And on Monday, after being called out and getting fired, she took to Instagram Live, crying and seen to be saying something, but without audio as the video was muted. After the Live, she also posted a “coming out" note, trying to repair the damage by claiming that she was trans herself."

Ah no because if you are a woman who identifies as a woman doesn’t that make you queer, and therefore special?

Stealth, do you identify as having blue hair? You could hang on to the medal yet.

But she can be biologically female. But identify as a man who identifies as a woman. If that's how she identifies, no one is allowed to question it. That's the usual train if though fron TRAs.

Wether the facts that dont match that. It doesnt matter. Why does it matter of she didnt actually transition as a child?

It doesnt matter if you insist you are an adult human female, despite having a cock. That's factually wrong too, but TRAs insist you shouldnt say that.

According to TRA logic, biological sex is a social construct.

These are the comments that apparently are so heinous that she lost her job and has been hounded on social media, and has probably lost all her friends.

Cosmopolitan magazine says this:

'Obviously, this is hurtful, untrue, and unnecessary on so many levels'

I can't decide if the adults behind articles like this actually believe what they are saying, or if it's a case of needing to shout loudly about how woke they actually are so no one has time to doubt them.

She's 20. I hope she has people around her. Women to support and nurture her.

Yay for a climate that tears down a young black woman for not recognising her place in the pecking order?

Fuck this all. Fuck it.

Starting facts loses you your job. Not the first time and not the last time it will happen.

I think there's a chance for her that it will blow over, at least.
