      The first post, from his X feed, called it a “violent, abusive act” for a trans-identified male to be in a female-only space. He suggested: “Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails punch him in the balls.”

      The third expressed his views, in which he said “I hate them”, referring to “misogynists and homophobes”, adding an expletive.

      As I read it, he is turning the TERF argument on its head by calling for a scene if a trans-male (FtM) enters a women’s bathroom (what the law states).

      EDIT: A different article gave more context to the tweets. The dude is a hardcore TERF, like JK Rowling.

        He wasn’t saying anything about trans men, at least in the part you quoted. That’s a slur used against trans women.

          You are correct. A different article was far clearer on his stance. I am sure his choice of words was deliberately confusing. What a jerk. I’m sure he’ll play the martyr now.

        That’s what would’ve gotten him arrested.
