A news article about the Sep 4 school shooting in Georgia says the shooter was frustrated about the acceptance of trans people. LibsOfTikTok reinterpreted this to mean the exact opposite of what it says, and blamed trans people for the shooting, so all the twitter chuds were baying for blood all day yesterday.

They've done this for every major shooting in the US for the past few years

          The suspect was allegedly bullied by his peers and frequently called “gay”, his father told investigators in a phone call in 2023.

          That was not what the father was saying.

          Teenage boys regularly call people they don't like gay (derogatory). That was the case when I was that age anyway.

      more of a terf island ideology tbh. much more fringe ideology here than incels, much less the broader reactionary shooter base
