‘Feminist‘ Insta account enrages me

Ok I spotted this first on a well known author’s Insta account (Brighton dwelling, YA author, ‘gay as a consolation prize‘ person) Traced it back to a ‘feminist’ account on Insta called fgrlsclub - 67k followers.

Obvious context is the tragic news from Clapham. Obviously women all over are rocked by this.

But what is the final thought of this piece on this Feminist site? (I haven’t linked to it on purpose)

THIS is their ‘take home‘ on the whole tragic situation: “... our streets, the ones we call so easily our home, are even more dangerous for transwomen”

Apart from this being palpably untrue - how fucking dare they take this situation and turn it into an opportunity for women to know their place and infer we’re all so fucking privileged. This and Caitlin’s grovelling apology is pushing me over the edge.

As far as I'm aware, there are no trans women who have ever been murdered on the street in the UK or kidnapped off of it.
I have no idea how many women have because it's happened that many times.

It's a load of ol' shite.

Best ignored.

It's appropriation, it's whataboutery, it's disgusting.
