Sharing this here as I feel it's important to see both sides on a forum like this, where there are many articles shared about scenes getting nasty at protests, and I haven't seen anything about it yet. Lilly was accosted whilst literally just eating a salad and live streaming.

My opinion: It's sad, and makes me fearful for the future.

San Francisco transgender woman is verbally assaulted while eating

Lilly Contino was enjoying her food at the Union Square, San Francisco restaurant when the elderly woman sitting at a nearby table spit transphobic comments at her.

Nice to see that TERF can be used as a slur. Thanks @mnhq!

Hi Florissante,
If you read the article you will see that the woman in question identified herself as a "TERF" and we feel that the quotes around the term in the subject line reflect that. We don't have a list of banned words on MN, instead we keep a careful eye on context. We hope that helps you to understand our position.
