Two trans activist journalists - both accused of abusing women

[jadefinch]

The first is James Fell, a blue tick journalist who's been published in the guardian, LA Times and TIME magazine.

Charlie Evans, the detransitioner who's set up The Detransition Advocacy Network charity, reached out to him - because she liked his work - in a private message on Facebook to say she's received abuse and threats online since being vocal about detransitioning.

Charlie, incidentally, has now faced so much targeted harassment for her apostacy that her PayPal account has inexplicably been suspended for 6 months.

James sent her a reply, screengrabbed, which was entirely abusive and even included a reference to raping her.

The second is New York Times writer Meredith Russo, who authored a viral tweet about men abusing women earlier this month.

It's now emerged that Russo has been arrested for sexual violence against a woman.

This, BTW, is the message Charlie sent James that resulted in the abuse

I don’t even understand that tweet by Russo. Are they saying that males who feel compelled to comply with feminine stereotypes of appearance sometimes have horrible partners? I don’t think anyone would dispute that would they? In the same way members of any group can get stuck with horrible partners. I’m genuinely

As for James Fell, the excuse to verbally abuse a woman was just too good for him to pass up, wasn’t it?

Shame his brain isn't fit for a wife.
Fuck off, misogynist.

Ok I’ve read the article now

Blimey if that’s accurate, Russo sounds fucking awful and a total hypocrite to be pontificating about abusive relationships

This is the blog that makes the accusations about Russo.

I'm more shocked by James Fell - 'let me know when they follow through on those threats TERF' in response to a vulnerable woman saying she's received rape and death threats

My God, that James Fell msg is HORRENDOUS.

What the fuck is the matter with him?

James Fell’s Twitter says Bylines: @Guardian. He wrote one article in 2016. So not only a vile person, but one with an inflated opinion of their journalistic credentials.

Wait so, Stroud who's changed their first name, writes under the surname Russo - which just happens to be his ex-wife's name?

I mean, that's a massive red flag already.

Transwomen murdered with regularity?

Is he sure?

Juniper Russo has made allegations of rape and abuse against Meredith Russo

But surely any trans people are killed by men? Is there any evidence a woman has killed anyone trans?

Not suggesting for a minute that that is right, of course, just wondering why women are getting the blame for it.

Is there any evidence a woman has killed anyone trans?

Anyone interested in this question should refer to this very interesting post:
