Back in 2013 during the trans bathroom panic under Obama in NC I got attacked in a bathroom in NY for being perceived as trans. I’m a woman, in the woman’s room, with a vagina. My crime? Short hair. Queer appearance.

The attack on trans people is an attack on "others".

You got attacked not for looking trans, but not looking enough like a woman.

That's the insidious thing about the alt right. It's about what they believe is "right".
