As a trans woman subject daily to these attacks, I agree. The proper argument is "go fuck yourself" followed by a right hook.https://twitter.com/LevineJonathan/status/833124630844030976 …

Violence accomplishes nothing except to give Milo critics more ammunition. I imagine you were being hyperbolic, but still.

Violence protects trans women from violence every day. Every day. It only helps Milo if trans lives aren't worth saving.

I may be misunderstanding the context. I am undercaffeinated. Let me catch up on the tweet train, sorry if I spoke too soon.

Just to confirm, you're saying that 'go fuck yourself' and physically assaulting a person with a disgusting view is right?

I'm saying self defense is justified and that Milo isn't espousing abstract political opinions, but actually targeting people

Self-defense from physical violence of course, but the way you phrased it sounds like you can assault any Milo fan at all.

oh no, not any milo fan. Just him, when he stands on a platform and says "hurt this trans woman please."

If they're calling for physical violence, then sure, I'm with you. Otherwise, I disagree. Violence begets violence.

Violence is of many forms, and inciting people to suicide is also violence.
