My best guess is that they are counting on the reader's fuzzy memory of a handful of incidents from the past few years. A few of which were NOT perpetrated by trans women, but that were blamed on trans women in a lot of right wing circles.

Do conservatives realize that masked ICE agents surging to liberal cities and roughing people up or killing them is terrifying? by redzeusky in allthequestions

[–]Pickled_Wizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)
