Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey defended the trans community, saying those who direct hate toward trans people have “lost their sense of common humanity.” The shooter has been identified as 23-year-old Robin Westman. FBI Director Kash Patel identified them as a male. Documents from Westman requesting a name change say they identify as female.
Your first comment asserted: “Who cares what this person is called.” Did that change between now and then? Would you concede that misgendering this shooter is not a valid expression of disdain for their actions?
Yes it changed a little bit, but only insofar as the implications to other people. I kind of wish the trans community would reject and condemn the shooter instead of using the identity of the shooter as a talking point for unrelated issues in society. Unless you believe the identity of the shooter is related to what they did?
