If you don’t believe in free speech for people who you disagree with, and even hate for what they stand for, then you don’t believe in free speech.

Replying to @rickygervais @josepharthur
You can say whatever the fuck you want but don't pretend that your transphobic "jokes" don't contribute to a world in which trans people are persecuted and killed, and don't expect trans people to not exercise our free speech trying to drown you out and fight for our lives.

"Suicide from jokes"?!?! WTF? I'm talking about life in a transphobic society where trans people face high rates of economic & employment discrimination and are routinely murdered. When influential comedians make transphobic "jokes" they normalize and perpetuate all that.
