I'm not commenting at all on the political aspects, but fake headlines are inappropriate at HN.
Misleading headlines can derail opportunities to have a conversation about the actual cause of outrage, especially when reading a headline may be all that some do.
A misleading headline can lead to excessive outrage, which may make any efforts at discourse impossible.
Now downvote me and tell me how he deserves it because he is engaged in hate speech or whatever, you'll just prove my point.
He uses the old names from two transgender students on purpose.
He is a bully.
Of course there are two primary gender in biological context and it doesn't make a lot of sense to subcategories them.
And I also don't want to be cancelled because someone thinks it's not okay to write transwoman when it makes sense.
It's a valid sentence to say 'i don't want to date transgender woman'.
And it also makes sense to separate woman rights from transwoman rights.
> He uses the old names from two transgender students on purpose.
