The anime avatar/MRA/TRA/Incel crowds get off on being violent (vocally and in person) to women.
Maajid is the 'wrong' type of target.
In a sense it seems, if a woman was getting attacked on the street by a man, Maajid would now be the type of decent man who would push them back and shout "Go ahead then big man. Hit me instead. Go on big man. Piece o'shit attacking women."
