On September 4, 14-year-old suspect Colt Gray allegedly killed two students and two teachers at Apalachee High School in what has become Georgia’s deadliest school shooting. Continuing a familiar trend, fringe right-wing accounts almost immediately began claiming without evidence that the shooter was trans. Prominent right-wing media influencers followed suit, apparently misinterpreting a CNN report about the suspect’s online activity to baselessly claim that the suspect was “another trans shooter” and “motivated by trans activism."
Nah, it’s worse. A lot of them want to tear down the whole world for other reasons like thinking that enslaving women is the only way they can get laid, or that expelling immigrants is the only way they can get a job. Attacking LGBT people is how they virtue signal to other hateful people.
I think it’s worse than that. They are motivated by real hatred and have repeatedly called for the “eradication” of trans people. They must not be given a chance to show us how serious they are about that.
Yeah, I’m sure the hatred is genuine.
