Holy shit it's disgusting. They quote him going off on some anti autism bullshit to justify his transphobia. Fuck him and fuck you BBC. This article is full of transphobic bullshit.

    BBC, Guaridan Uk, and most other British media are transphobic as fuck. It’s what’s ultimately turned me off all of them and seeing how much these legacy media institutions are not the arbiters of integrity and truth society thinks them.

    Controversy sells it seems and our existence is frighteningly controversial. I never expected to wear a pink triangle when we learned about the Holocaust. I thought that shit was behind us as a species. How naive my younger self was.
