[TW: T-word] GetEQUAL’s Nelson Garcia Launches Transphobic, Ableist Tirade Against NYT Critics
I know you’ll all be shocked to hear that yet another cis-gay activist affiliated with a major LGB(t) organization has publicly revealed himself to be a trans-exterminationist. This time it’s Nelson Garcia of GetEQUAL who has released a post on his blog criticizing GLAAD and others for “bullying” the New York Times over their widely criticized coverage of the death of Lorena Escalera.
Garcia characterized critics of the coverage as “a bunch of bipolar tr***ies and other assorted characters upset that she was getting some and they’re sitting at home pretending.” Classy.
Whether or not GetEQUAL will attempt to distance themselves from Garcia or his comments remains to be seen, but if history is any indication, I wouldn’t hold my breath.
Same old, same old.
