Comment on A postal worker in Harlem attacked a trans woman. She fought back and fatally stabbed him in self-defense. This is how the NY Post framed it.
That’s my point, gender has no relation to violent crimes, bringing it up in the headline is just bigoted
It was kind of a factor in that the mailman called her a f****t and that would be misgendering but Im not going to suggest that was the Post’s motivation
Tgis might be an important detail to put in the post, but in the headline? It makes no sense past bigotry
I take issue with OP’s headline and the Post’s.
I agree, OP makes it out like it wasn’t an extreme act of violence, even though it did start as self defence.
