@emma @TheGoodSpace I just searched the relevant hashtag and came up with one post describing people having to defend themselves against false accusations as "a minor inconvenience" and "the price for making fedi a better place," and another that's tone-policing the transfem people speaking out against him: "...if you come at me like a dickhead because you feel you or someone you know is being treated unfairly, and that justifies you acting like a straight asshole, I'm going to assume you're just a bigot."
I don't think there's any room for interpretation there.
