(September 5, 2025 at 12:33 am)Rev. Rye Wrote: Famed former comedy legend and current gobshite Graham Linehan has apparently been arrested for transphobic tweets.
Worth noting, the most damning tweet says:
Gobshite Wrote:“If a trans-identified male is in a female-only space, he is committing a violent, abusive act. Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails, punch him in the balls.”
The other two tweets cited are just garden-variety crude prejudice, but with this, it’s hard to treat this as anything but an explicit incitement to violence.
That was eight solid minutes of people missing the point.
